Requests:  0 Summary:  On March 2, 1908, nineteen-year-old Lazarus Averbuch, a recent Jewish immigrant from Eastern Europe to Chicago, knocked on the front door of the house of George Shippy, the chief of Chicago police. When Shippy came to the door, Averbuch offered him what he said was an important letter. Instead of taking the letter, Shippy shot Averbuch twice, killing him. When Shippy released a statement casting Averbuch as a would-be anarchist assassin and agent of foreign political operatives, he all but set off a city and a country already simmering with ethnic and political tensions. Now, in the twenty-first century, a young writer in Chicago, Brik, also from Eastern Europe, becomes obsessed with Lazarus's story--what really happened, and why?--From publisher description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aiea Public Library Adult Fiction Hemon Lost 08/04/2010 Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Hemon Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Hemon Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Fiction Hemon Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Fiction Hemon Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Fiction Hemon Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Hemon missing from shelf   Add Copy to MyList
