A businessman leaves prison and heads to Chicago to regain his fortune—but his past follows close behind him—in this absorbing historical epic.
 
Newly released from prison, Frank Cowperwood immediately dives back into the stock market after the Panic of 1873, aiming to recover his lost fortune and become a millionaire once more. This time, he has a new plan and sets out for Chicago with his mistress, Aileen.
 
Using his brutal business sense to snuff out his opponents, Frank has his eyes on the city’s street-railway system as his ticket back to the top. But as Frank knows, the past cannot remain buried forever, and it’s only a matter of time before his previous misdeeds come back to find him in his new home, threatening his stability—and more importantly, his money.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Theodore Dreiser

Theodore Dreiser nasceu a 27 de agosto de 1871. Foi um dos maiores escritores e ativista político no começo do século XX. Nascido em Indiana, no seio de uma família imigrante católica alemã e humilde, partiu aos 15 anos de idade para Chicago, tendo trabalhado inicialmente como jornalista. Tornou-se o autor mais representativo do naturalismo norte-americano, após o sucesso dos seus primeiros três romances da sua obra.
Apreciado pela narrativa crua da realidade, a construção das personagens refletem as injustiças sociais e a sua perspetiva sobre o modo de vida americano. Genial observador da vida, Dreiser exerceu grande influência sobre a geração de escritores americanos que se seguiu à sua. Faleceu em Hollywood, de ataque cardíaco, aos 74 anos.
