Resonant with echoes of Wilkie Collins and Charles Dickens, Cox's richly imagined thriller features an unreliable narrator, Edward Glyver, who opens his chilling "confession" with a cold-blooded account of an anonymous murder that he commits one night on the streets of 1854 London. That killing is mere training for his planned assassination of Phoebus Daunt, an acquaintance Glyver blames for virtually every downturn in his life. Glyver feels Daunt's insidious influence in everything from his humiliating expulsion from school to his dismal career as a law firm factotum.
Fourteen years ago, pregnant Paige Dunn was felled by a severe case of polio; she delivered her baby from an iron lung.

Out of this virtually shut-in situation, Elizabeth Berg has knitted a tight fiction about domestic strife and loyalty; racism; and the long aftermath of disease.
