Alex Cross's Trial Chapter 83 Summary

  • Ben is drinking coffee when he hears the dogs barking.
  • They've noticed someone is creeping around back there, and Ben looks out to find Elizabeth and L.J. Stringer.
  • They've come to warn him that his life is in danger.
  • People are watching him all the time—everyone knows exactly where he is and what he's doing, and it's only a matter of time before they try to kill Ben again.
  • Ben appreciates them coming by, but he also resents how they talk about the people in the town.
  • Elizabeth acts like everyone is considerate and kind, when actually they are part of the KKK.
  • L.J. tells Ben that he's willing to help the guy out.
  • Then the pair leave, but not before warning Ben to watch his back and trust no one.
