In 1865 Boston, a series of murders inspired by Dante's Inferno terrorize the city. A group of Dante scholars, including Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Oliver Wendell Holmes, and James Russell Lowell, unite to decipher the crimes. With the police baffled, the Dante Club must abandon its sheltered literary existence and find the killer before more lives are lost and Dante's legacy is endangered.
This historical thriller weaves real facts about a literary club that existed in real life, creating complex character studies and nail-biting suspense. A unique and utterly absorbing tale that blends mystery, history, and classic literature.
