Lyndsay Faye is the author of a number of critically acclaimed books, including the Edgar Award–nominated novels "Jane Steele" and "The Gods of Gotham." In Faye's new novel "The Paragon Hotel," the year is 1921, and “Nobody” Alice James is on a cross-country train, carrying a bullet wound and fleeing for her life following an illicit drug and liquor deal gone horribly wrong. Desperate to get as far away as possible from New York City and those who want her dead, she has her sights set on Oregon: a distant frontier that seems the end of the line. |
