City of Light
批評家のレビュー
A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK
“Suspenseful…A historical novel of high intrigue.” (People)
“Get your hands on City of Light, a full-to-the-brim first novel…a straight-through, sleepless read.” (Time)
"...an ingenious first novel." (The New York Times Book Review)
“Breathtaking . . . a remarkable blend of murder mystery, love story, political intrigue, and tragedy of manners.” (USA Today)
あらすじ・解説
The year is 1901. Buffalo, New York, is poised for glory. With its booming industry and newly electrified streets, Buffalo is a model for the century just beginning.
Louisa Barrett has made this dazzling city her home. Headmistress of Buffalo’s most prestigious school, Louisa is at ease in a world of men, protected by the titans of her city. But nothing prepares her for a startling discovery: evidence of a murder tied to the city’s cathedral-like power plant at nearby Niagara Falls. This shocking crime—followed by another mysterious death—will ignite an explosive chain of events. For in this city of seething intrigue and dazzling progress, a battle rages among politicians, power brokers, and industrialists for control of Niagara. And one extraordinary woman in their midst must protect a dark secret that implicates them all. . . .
