In a stately West Village town house, a wealthy socialite
and her secretary are murdered. In the 24 hours that follow,
a flurry of activity surrounds their shocking deaths:
The head of one of the city's last tabloids stops the
presses. A cop investigates the killing. A reporter chases
the story. A disgraced hedge fund manager flees the country.
An Iraq War vet seeks revenge. And an angry young extremist
plots a major catastrophe.
The City is many things: a proving ground, a decadent
carnival, or a palimpsest of memories--a historic metropolis
eclipsed by modern times. As much a thriller as it is a
gripping portrait of the city of today, Tabloid City is a
new fiction classic from the writer who has captured New
York perfectly for decades.
