A Spectacle of Corruption |
Note: In 1722, David Liss's perennial hero, Benjamin Weaver, has become an 18th-century celebrity after the publication of his sensational memoirs. He has also been condemned to hang for a murder he didn't commit. Managing to escape from Newgate Prison, he sets out to clear his name. But in the tense political climate of London, there are forces at work that have good reason to want him dead, and his task is made more difficult when he begins to suspect that the husband of the woman he hopelessly loves is involved in a plot to bring him down. The "spectacle of corruption" extends to every corner of London as Weaver struggles to save his own life--and as Liss treats the reader to a panoramic but lovingly detailed view of the city in all its sublimity and squalor. |
