Winner of the Edgar award for best fact crime story. A tale of two men and their works: the brilliant architect who organized the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago (the first venue for the Ferris Wheel --America's answer to the Eiffel Tower--and alternating current, among other innovations) and a cunning and brutal serial killer who used the fair to lure his victims.
