The Second Ku Klux Klan’s success in the 1920s remains one of the order’s most enduring mysteries. Emerging first as a brotherhood dedicated to paying tribute to the original Southern organization of the Reconstruction period, the Second Invisible Empire developed into a mass movement with millions of members that influenced politics and culture throughout the early 1920s. This study explores the nature of fraternities, especially the overlap between the Klan and Freemasonry. Drawing on many previously untouched archival resources, it presents a detailed and nuanced analysis of the development and later decline of the Klan and the complex nature of its relationship with the traditions of American fraternalism.
En un discreto apartotel de Orense, aparece muerto el expresidente de la Comunidad, un hombre que desde los comienzos de la Transición ha sido uno de los principales puntales de los sucesivos gobiernos de España. Aunque las especulaciones se desatan en los medios de comunicación, parece que el caso se va a cerrar como una muerte accidental. Descontenta con los cabos sueltos de la investigación, Teresa, la viuda, requiere los servicios de la abogada Beatriz Seijo. Muy pronto, entre letrada y cliente se establece una corriente de simpatía y confianza que hace que Beatriz se sienta cada vez más implicada en un caso muy turbio y que parece que ha desencadenado una serie de muertes en el entorno del político fallecido.
