Bookseller Information
Bibliographic Details
Book DescriptionSt Martins Pr. Hardcover. 0312170394 ex lib, nice book and dj . Very Good. Media Reviews"The author is a sure hand with gothic tremors and the taboos of the Gilded Age, though some may be bothered by the depiction of Leland's illness. Still, Rae is as firmly in her Manhattan-past niche as Stephen Birmingham." -- Kirkus First LineThe day we moved out of the old house on Harrison Street in downtown New York I tripped over the loose board in the front hall and cut my forehead on the edge of the small marble shelf meant for letters and calling cards. Publisher NotesAfter Caroline Slade's parents die suddenly in 1892, her father's debts force her sister to go to New England in hope of marrying well. When she returns to New York in disgrace and impulsively marries their neighbor's nephew, a handsome but reclusive writer, Caroline is caught in the middle as the nephew's strange, tormented behavior threatens to drive her sister away and throws both families into turmoil.
