Synopsis

Here is the myth-shattering expos├® that reveals the truth behind the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.—shocking and controversial revelations from James Earl Ray's attorney.On April 4, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. stepped out onto the balcony of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee, and into his killer's line of fire. One shot ended Dr. King's life and forever changed the course of American history—setting into motion a massive cover-up that has withstood a quarter-century of scrutiny. After eighteen years of intensive investigation, William F. Pepper has torn away the veil of subterfuge that has hidden the truth surrounding King's death—proving the innocence of convicted assassin James Earl Ray and revealing the evil conspiracy behind the murder of our nation's greatest civil rights leader.

Quotes

“Pepper’s pursuit of justice makes for an involving account.” Midwest Book Review

“Dramatic new evidence confirming the innocence of James Earl Ray and identifying the actual killers of Martin Luther King Jr.” Executive Intelligence Review

“Pepper’s story is inevitably complex because it traces when and how Ray’s defenders learned about various leads, as well as how those leads fit into their changing understanding of King’s murder. But a list of the ‘principal players’ and a final chapter that sums up the 1968 chronology will help readers put the pieces together. Worth attention from concerned citizens as well as dedicated conspiracy buffs.” Booklist
