Edgar Allan Poe is an American boy in England, a child standing on the edge of mysteries. In 1819, two Americans arrive in London. Soon afterward a bank collapses. A man is found horribly mutilated on a building site and an heiress flirts with her inferiors. All the while, Poe's young schoolmaster struggles to understand what is happening before he and his loved ones are destroyed. But the truth, like the youthful Poe himself, has its origins in the New World as well as the Old--in a bitter episode of corruption during the War of 1812.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith settings ranging from the coal-scented urban jungle of late Regency London to the stark winter landscapes of rural Gloucestershire, \u003ci\u003eAn Unpardonable Crime\u003c\/i\u003e is a multilayered literary murder mystery, a historical novel, and a love story. In addition to shedding fascinating light on Edgar Allan Poe, the book is a fast-paced suspenseful read, filled with shocking revelations.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Grand Central Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51107808117041,"sku":"9781401301026","price":43.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/pageaday.com\/products\/an-unpardonable-crime-9781401301026","provider":"Page-A-Day","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
