Mystery Historical
Stefanie Pintoff’s acclaimed and award-winning debut is the
taut historical tale of Detective Simon Ziele, a man who
lost his fiancée in the 1904 General Slocum ferry disaster
and thereafter flees New York City for Dobson, New York, to
escape the memories of her death. But months into his
tenure, he catches the worst homicide of his career: a
young woman brutally murdered in her own bedroom in the
middle of the afternoon. His investigation quickly takes
him to Columbia University criminologist Alistair Sinclair
and one of his patients. But what could lead this Michael
Fromley, with his history of violent behavior, to target
such a proper young lady? Is Michael really behind the
murder or is someone mimicking him? Ziele must discover the
truth in this story of a haunted man on the trail of a
killer while on the run from his own demons.
