Produktbeschreibung
A rule-breaking reporter for a crooked newspaper investigates the darker side of a popular real estate tycoon. One of the tycoon's rickety buildings houses hundreds of workers for a shadowy bureaucracy. The reporter's incendiary discoveries compel him to hide his related memoir for a century to shield those on the scandals' fringes. Dr. Rebecca Kitiona-Fenton, a multiracial feminist, outspokenly annotates the newspaper memoir of her white great-granduncle, Jonathan Stone. This complex tale teems with memorable characters caught up in a classic Washington dilemma: friendship vs. duty. Real estate magnate Sy Solomon, a folksy ex-bricklayer, buys up scores of politicians and bureaucrats. Kirkus Reviews says The Solomon Scandals "captures the aura of dark nihilism in some quarters of the political world with great power. This is a riveting work, mordantly insightful and surprisingly entertaining." Read Scandals for a thoughtful character-driven suspense novel rather than a "non-stop action" thriller.
