The Locket - 9780692991114

New York City in 1910 was a place of great social and economic turmoil. While muckraking journalists exposed corruption in high places and workers fought in the streets for better wages, the rich acted as though the Gilded Age would never come to an end. Thrust into the midst of all of this was Will Ingalls, a young seminarian and aide to the Episcopal Bishop of New York. When he fell in love with Ana Markowicz, an immigrant union organizer, he found himself torn between his prospects for a bright career in the church and his growing devotion to Ana and her cause. In an historical novel that sweeps across the city from the Cathedral of St. John the Divine on Morningside Heights to the Settlement Houses of the Lower East Side, from the library of J.P. Morgan to the city's sweatshops, the reader follows Will as he confronts the moral issues of the day.
