Description

A game of chess sets in motion a chain of events that will shape the future of Chicago for generations to come. In 1800, the outcome of this pivotal match hangs precariously in the balance, with far-reaching consequences for the players and their descendants. The lives of those involved are forever altered by the result, as the city itself undergoes a transformation that will reverberate through its history. This gripping novel explores the intricate web of relationships and power struggles that define this pivotal moment in American history. Jonathan Carr's masterful storytelling brings to life the complexities of 19th-century Chicago, weaving together historical fact and compelling narrative to create a richly textured portrait of a city on the cusp of greatness.
