Produktbeschreibung
From award-winning author, L.A. Chandlar, a stunning new novel that explores the mystery of the Hindenburg and what makes a monster. The New York City gangsters are at war. Spring, 1937, Lane Sanders, fearless City Hall aide to Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia, overhears rumblings in a jazz club that power plays are being made across the city. Lane hears two crucial clues: Daphne Franco, Lane's nemesis, and then two words that make her blood run cold: Hindenburg hit. Consulting with FDR and the up and coming Winston Churchill, everyone decides Lane is the best shot they have at stopping the infamous Daphne once and for all. Onboard the elegant, floating masterpiece, Lane and Daphne engage in a deadly game of cat and mouse while passengers dine and drink late into the night listening to the grand piano thousands of feet above the Atlantic Ocean. With themes of chosen family, self-discovery, and what makes a monster...Lane and her crew of indefatigable friends work to stop a diabolical scheme. In a cameo with Josephine Baker, Lane realizes the hit could have an even more incendiary impact than anyone can or will expect. Only the City Hall secretary turned Hindenburg spy can save what could not only spark another war, but take out some of the most powerful people in the world. The fiery images of the Hindenburg would go down in history provoking conspiracy theories and nightmares that would barely touch on what really happened. No one would ever forget, "Oh the humanity!"
