For one, its high-profile enough to command the attention of the police commissioner. The judge was presiding over the trial of Al Drayson, an anarchist, who set off a bomb at a Carnegie wedding, but instead of killing millionaires, it killed passersby, including a child. The trial has captured the attention of 1906 New York City.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, Simon's precinct doesn't include Gramercy Park, which is where the judge is found in his town house with his throat slashed. But his widow insists on calling her husband's old classmate criminologist, Alistair Sinclair, who in turn enlists Ziele. Together they must steer Sinclair's methods past a police force that is focused on rounding up Drayson's supporters and have all but rejected any other possibilities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEdgar Award–winning author Stefanie Pintoff's combination of a fascinating case and the sometimes-brutal and sometimes-glittering history of turn-of-the-century New York in this stellar historical makes \u003ci\u003eSecret of the White Rose\u003c\/i\u003e an utterly compelling read.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Densely plotted, rich in moral ambiguity, and guaranteed to grip readers to the very last page.” —\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews (starred review) on Secret of the White Rose\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Edgar-winner Pintoff proves with her third historical that she's the equal of Caleb Carr.” —\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly (starred review) on Secret of the White Rose\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Mystery lovers might just have found the next Caleb Carr.” —\u003ci\u003eThe Huffington Post on A Curtain Falls\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781250001665\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Minotaur Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40634042548430,"sku":"9781250001665","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_579c0675-4885-4dde-a77a-bb0d42de503d.jpg?v=1638930791","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781250001665","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
