An astonishing account of the assassination of America's most beloved and celebrated civil rights leader, Martin Luther King Jr., by New York Times bestselling author, James L. Swanson.
In his meteoric, thirteen-year rise to fame, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. led a mass movement for Civil Rights -- with his relentless peaceful, non-violent protests, public demonstrations, and eloquent speeches. But as violent threats cast a dark shadow over Dr. King's life, Swanson hones in on James Earl Ray, a bizarre, racist prison escapee who tragically ends King's life.
As he did in his bestselling Scholastic MG/YA books Chasing Lincoln's Killer and The President Has Been Shot!, Swanson transports listeners back to one of the most shocking, sad, and terrifying events in American history.
