A novel based on the controversial case of two immigrants executed for
murder in 1927, from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of
Spartacus. Seven years, two trials, and three appeals after their
arrest for robbery and murder in 1920, anarchists Nicola Sacco and
Bartolomeo Vanzetti await execution in their prison cells. Supporters
around the world have passionately argued their innocence,
particularly when Celestino Madeiros, a young mobster, confesses to
the murders along with other members of his gang. But no retrial is
ordered; on August 23, 1927, Sacco and Vanzetti are executed.
Howard Fast’s heartrending fictional account offers a window into
the thoughts and feelings of a presumed-innocent Sacco and Vanzetti,
and is a withering indictment of the American justice system. This
ebook features an illustrated biography of Howard Fast including rare
photos from the author’s estate.
