Set in 19th-century New York's upper society, this intricate mystery weaves together wealth, inheritance, murder, and social intrigue. Anna Katharine Green-often called the mother of American detective fiction-delivers a story that is as much a domestic drama as it is a suspenseful whodunit. When a promising young man finds himself embroiled in scandal and secrets, he must navigate both his conscience and a growing web of suspicion. Legal drama, hidden identities, and moral reckoning converge in a plot as sharp as its title. Green's pioneering attention to forensic detail and courtroom procedure helped lay the foundation for modern detective novels, but it is her sensitive treatment of character and social commentary that give this novel its enduring appeal. A compelling read for fans of classic crime fiction and period literature alike.
