A deep dive into James Earl Ray's role in the national tragedy: "Superb ... a model of investigation ... as gripping as a first-class detective story" (
The New York Times).
On April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King Jr. was killed in Memphis, Tennessee, by a single assassin's bullet. A career criminal named James Earl Ray was seen fleeing from a rooming house that overlooked the hotel balcony from where King was cut down.An international manhunt ended two months later with Ray's capture. Though Ray initially pled guilty, he quickly recanted and for the rest of his life insisted he was an unwitting pawn in a grand conspiracy. In
Killing the Dream, expert investigative reporter Gerald Posner reexamines Ray and the evidence, even tracking down the mystery man Ray claimed was the conspiracy's mastermind.
Beginning with an authoritative biography of Ray's life, and continuing with a gripping account of the assassination and its aftermath, Posner cuts through phony witnesses, false claims, and a web of misinformation surrounding that tragic spring day in 1968. He puts Ray's conspiracy theory to rest and ultimately manages to disclose what really happened the day King was murdered.
