    Publisher's Note
    In 1849 Baltimore, following the death of Edgar Allan Poe, Quentin Clark, a young city dweller fiercely loyal to his favorite author, discovers that Poe's final days had been marked by a series of bizarre, unanswered questions and, inspired by Poe's fictional detective C. Auguste Dupin, launches his own investigation to resolve the mystery of Poe's death. Simultaneous.

    "Pearl masterfully combines fact with fiction and presents some genuinely new historical clues that help reconstruct Poe's final days."
