This highly anticipated debut novel by Robert Brighton is inspired by a true crime 'murder of the century' and transports us to Buffalo, New York, set against the backdrop of Gilded Age splendor and excess. Named BookLife Editor's Pick. Love, Lust, and Murder in the Gilded Age - An Avenging Angel Detective Agency Mystery - Book One. Buffalo, New York, 1901. A muscular, young city, Queen of the Lakes - The Electric City - where the money spent to build Newport mansions and Park Avenue townhouses is made, plays host to the world's greatest fair, the Pan-American Exposition and its 8,000,000 guests. Less than a mile from the great spectacle, a web of love, lust, and intrigue is forming among the elite Ashwood Set. But life is never fast enough, or high enough, for the Ashwood Set, who plunge headlong into a deadly whirlpool of official corruption, financial deceit, and infidelity that can only end in disaster. In The Unsealing, Robert Brighton recreates a world at once utterly strange and strangely familiar. Pitting detective against detective, husbands against wives, and set against the backdrop of Gilded Age splendor and excess, The Unsealing is a gripping, psychological tale of forbidden pleasures and fathomless pain.
