It was a crime scene Edgar Allan Poe himself could have conjured, only it was all too real: workers demolishing a nineteenth-century Greenwich Village brownstone where Poe once lived unearthed the skeleton of a young woman — buried standing upright behind a brick wall. Manhattan Assistant D.A. Alexandra Cooper takes on the gruesome case while in pursuit of the Silk Stocking Rapist, who is terrorizing the Upper East Side. But Alex discovers that one crime thread leads to the other as she follows a trail of clues to the Bronx Botanical Gardens, where a group of Poe devotees may shed light on a stone-cold, modern-day murder of gothic proportions...and a cunning killer with a bone-chilling tale to tell.

      New York City sex crimes prosecutor Alexandra Cooper investigates two crimes, a rape and a murder, which at first appear to be related. Complications arise from the discovery of a corpse found entombed in the walls of a home connected to Edgar Allan Poe. The search leads to a mysterious club of Poe scholars, the Bronx Botanical Gardens, the United Nations, and some chilling near-death experiences. Office politics and personal tensions pepper the plot. Blair Brown is convincing as Cooper, reading with a good balance of emotional intensity and restraint while keeping the pace brisk. With enough twists to keep curiosity aroused, a likable cast of characters, and a fine reader, this will please old fans and win new ones for the Cooper series. E.S.

      After four years, the Silk Stocking Rapist is back stalking the Upper East Side, and the skeleton of a woman is found entombed in a brownstone once occupied by Edgar Allan Poe. Manhattan Sex Crimes Prosecutor Alexandra Cooper and her indispensable team, Mercer Wallace and Mike Chapman, face a double dose of challenging mysteries. Linda Fairstein builds a complicated scenario enhanced by classy plotting and crisp writing. Barbara Rosenblat delivers a stunning series of characters. She dispenses Fairstein's well-researched historic, geographic, and literary lore brilliantly, and when Alex is confined in a coffin-like box, Rosenblat's performance is, quite literally, breathtaking.
