The Governor of Louisiana is found dead one morning with lipstick smeared on his thigh. The regal First Lady strives to keep her composure as a young attorney delves into the muck of local politics, searching for answers. This novel travels through a corrupt and vibrant culture--to a brothel in the swamps, to Angola Prison, to a secluded mortuary and back to a dramatic funeral at the capitol--and lurking beneath the intrigue is the lasting damage caused by oil brokers, pumping their toxic poisons deep into the earth.
Paul Morphy: The Pride and Sorrow of Chess tells the full known story of the life of Paul Morphy, from his privileged upbringing in New Orleans to his dominance of the chess world, to the later tragedy of his demise. This new edition of David Lawson's seminal work, still the principal source for all Morphy biographical presentations, also includes new biographical material about the biographer himself, telling the story of the author, his opus, and the previously unknown life that brought him to the research.
