"Beautifully written, intricate and entrancing."--Jaroslaw Anders, Los Angeles Times Book Review
Galicia, Austria-Hungary, 1913. In the castle of a frontier town, on the border between Europe and the East, the corrupt Count-Governor Wiladowski watches helplessly while a wave of assassinations sweeps the empire, and his province. When a member of his own family is murdered, the count gives broad police powers to his spymaster, Jakob Tausk: a brilliant young Jew whose ruthless war on terror extends into every corner of the province and beyond, enlisting union organizers, financiers, aristocrats and their servants, and a young novelist and playwright, newly arrived in the Vienna of Franz Josef and Freud, hungry for literary success.Languages:EnglishPublisher:St. Martins Press-3PLISBN-13:9780312424374ISBN-10:031242437XUPC:9780312424374Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Historical, ThrillersBook Topic:HistoricalSize:8.50 x 5.50 x 1.30 inchesWeight:0.658Product ID:SCTQVBNP75
