Set in 19th Century Baltimore, 'Nevermore' is a spectacular historical thriller featuring as the narrator and main character of the novel, the tormented literary genius, Edgar Allan Poe.
In the spring of 1834, Poe and the celebrated American hero and frontiersman, Colonel David Crockett, are caught up in a chilling mystery: a string of savage murders committed by a killer who leaves only a single, tantalizing clue - the cryptic word "Nevermore," scrawled in blood at each crime scene. As they pursue the killer, they find themselves in a string of situations that will later become the basis for Poe's most famous stories such as 'The Tell-Tale Heart,' and 'The Fall of the House of Usher.'
'Nevermore' is both a tour de force of narrative suspense and a dazzling secret history of American literature's most unique and enduring figure.
