The second historical thriller by the author of THE DANTE CLUB focuses on Quentin Clark, a young lawyer living in 1849 who, after reading about Poe’s less-than-ceremonious funeral, becomes obsessed with finding out how the great writer really died. His quest takes him to Paris, where he tracks down the man he thinks is the real-life basis for one of Poe’s fictional detectives, and enlists his help in finding out the truth.
