A PREFACE TO TRIAL
By Alex Cross
A few months after I hunted a vicious killer named The Tiger halfway around the world, I began to think seriously about a book I had been wanting to write for years. I even had the title for it, Trial. The previous book I'd written was about the role of forensic psychology in the capture of the serial killer Gary Soneji. Trial would be very different, and in some ways, even more terrifying.
What I now feel compelled to write about took place in Mississippi during the time that Theodore Roosevelt was President, the early part of the twentieth century. I believe it is a story that helps illuminate why so many black people are angry, hurt, and lost in this country, even today. I also think it is important to keep this story alive for my family, and hopefully, for yours.
The main character is a man my grandmother knew here in Washington, a smart and courageous lawyer named Ben Corbett. It is our good fortune that Corbett kept first-person journals of his incredible experiences, including a trial that took place in Eudora, Mississippi. A few years before he died, Mr. Corbett gave those journals to my cousin Moody. Eventually they wound up in the hands of my grandmother. My suspicion is that what happened in Mississippi was too personal and painful for Corbett to turn into a book. But I have come to believe there has never been a better time for this story to be told.
