Paperback. Condizione: Fair. Benjamin Weaver, the quick-witted pugilist turned private investigator, returns in David Liss's sequel to the Edgar Award-winning novel, A Conspiracy of Paper. " A wonderful book . . . every bit as good as Liss's remarkable debut . . . easily one of the year's best."-The Boston Globe Moments after his conviction for a murder he did not commit, at a trial presided over by a judge determined to find him guilty, Benjamin Weaver is accosted by a stranger who cunningly slips a lockpick and a file into his hands. In an instant he understands two things: Someone wants him to hang-and another equally mysterious agent is determined to see him free. After a daring escape from eighteenth-century London's most notorious prison, Weaver must face another challenge: to prove himself innocent when the corrupt courts have shown they care nothing for justice.

"-San Antonio Express-News "Liss is a superb writer who evokes the squalor of London with Hogarthian gusto."-People "In Benjamin Weaver, Mr. Liss has created a multifaceted character and a wonderful narrator."-The New York Sun.…
