The girl from Greenwich Street [large print] : a novel of Hamilton, Burr, and America's first murder trial / Lauren Willig.

Willig, Lauren, (author.).

Summary:

"At the start of a new century, a heinous murder transfixes Manhattan, forcing bitter rivals Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr to work together to save a man from the gallows. Just before Christmas 1799, Elma Sands slips out of her Quaker cousin's boarding house--and doesn't come home. Has she eloped? Run away? No one knows--until her body appears in the Manhattan Well. Her family insists they know who killed her, a carpenter named Levi Weeks. Defending Levi Weeks is a double win for Aaron Burr: a hefty fee plus a chance to grab headlines. Alexander Hamilton has his own political aspirations and won't be overshadowed by Burr. Together they race against time to save a man's life--and destroy each other. The Girl from Greenwich Street revisits a dark corner of history in a tale with a surprise twist ending."-- Back cover.
