Bayard reinvigorates historical fiction.” — New York Times Book Review\nAn ingenious tale of murder and revenge at West Point, featuring a retired detective and a young cadet named Edgar Allan Poe—from the author of Courting Mr. Lincoln.\nAt West Point Academy in 1830, the calm of an October evening is shattered by the discovery of a young cadet's body swinging from a rope. The next morning, an even greater horror comes to light. Someone has removed the dead man's heart.\nAugustus Landor—who acquired some renown in his years as a New York City police detective—is called in to discreetly investigate. It's a baffling case Landor must pursue in secret, for the scandal could do irreparable damage to the fledgling institution. But he finds help from an unexpected ally—a moody, young cadet with a penchant for drink, two volumes of poetry to his name, and a murky past that changes from telling to telling.\nThe strange and haunted Southern poet, for whom Landor develops a fatherly affection, is named Edgar Allan Poe.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0060733985\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.0060733985.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Bayard, Louis\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in excellent condition.
