具体描述
In the riveting Island of Tears， Troy Soos introduced dime-novelist Marshall Webb and reformer Rebecca Davies. Now， the critically acclaimed author plunges readers once again into the gritty underside of turn-of-the-century New York， as Marshall and Rebecca reunite to take on Tammany Hall and the city s ruthless elite. A cholera epidemic has forced New York s immigrants into quarantine， and fear and panic ripple through the city. Amid a shaky economy， Rebecca Davies father cuts off funding for her woman s shelter. Rather than turn these destitute women out onto the cold， dangerous streets， Rebecca seeks investment help from Lyman Sinclair， a remarkably successful young banker. But when Sinclair is found dead--an apparent suicide--and Rebecca s money is nowhere to be found， the police refuse to investigate further. Determined to recoup her money， Rebecca approaches her friend， writer marshall Webb. Together， Rebecca and Marshall unravel a web of corruption that runs from the top levels of Wall Street， through the lavish theaters of Broadway， to the mean streets of the Bowery. At its heart is a massive cover-up， marked by unquenchable ambition and greed that could shake the very foundations of New York City.
