Printed Wrapper. Condizione: Fine. No Jacket. First Edition. 1st ed. A fine copy of the Uncorrected Proof with one small crease and nick. A tale of murder, deceit, infidelity and greed unfolds set in 1870 New York. It's a time of great growth as well as widespread corruption in the city. In the first of a new series, Roberta Rogow introduces the law firm of Pettigrew and Roth, comprised of the esteemed Ephraim Pettigrew, his niece, Margaret ("Peggy") Pettigrew; and the junior member of the firm, Joshua Roth, whose best friend, Michael Riley, is an assistant district attorney and Uncle Ephraim's prize protege. The firm has been hired by one Henry Ward Long, whose family is definitely a member of the city's High Society, to defend his nephew, one Bertram "Broadway Bertie" Delacorte, against a charge of murder. Delacorte has been accused, on scant evidence, of murdering Mrs. Suzanna Kendall. Roth succeeds in having the charges dismissed and the case against him thrown out at arraignment when none other than Peggy herself provides the man with an ironclad alibi. The celebration of their victory is short-lived, however, when Delacorte's dead body is fished out of the Hudson River less than a day later. Mr. Long asks the firm, to find the killer. The unlikely trio of Peggy, Michael and Josh set out to find the killer of both Mrs. Kendall and Bertie Delacorte. Uncorrected Proof. Codice articolo 017886
