Alex Cross's Trial Chapter 49 Summary

  • Ben heads over to the hardware store to get a bike of his own.
  • He's been borrowing the one at Maybelle's Inn, but he figures he should stop that now and get one for himself.
  • He rides it into the Quarter, where he meets up with Abraham.
  • The guy promises to show him some even scarier sights than he's seen already.
  • First stop? A lynching tree where people have built seats so everyone can sit down and watch the lynching take place.
  • Ben is disgusted, especially when he figures out that there's even a place to sell refreshments.
