Description: "They met as strangers on a train, each running from a death sentence. Matthew Stanton has been framed for the assassination of President William McKinley; Alyssa Harding is escaping a deranged husband who wants to kill her. The year is 1901. It is the end of the Gilded Age and the beginning of Ragtime. Americans are captivated by amazing scientific achievements that will change their lives forever: electricity, the telephone, flying machines, automobiles, x-rays, and enormous wealth created by the barons of Wall Street. And America is besieged by anarchists. In their frantic struggle to stay alive, Matthew and Alyssa weave a web of vicious deceptions, deadly confrontations and murder. Through the window of time, America's assassins of the past return to wreak their terror again"--Dust jacket flap.
