    Summary: 
    In 1934 Eliot Ness-- fresh from taking on the greatest gangster in American history-- arrived in Cleveland. In 1936 the city would host the Great Lake Exposition, which would be visited by seven million people. But in late 1934 parts of bodies started washing up on the Lake Erie shore. Ness found his drive to transform American policing subverted by a menace largely unknown to law enforcement: a serial murderer. Collins and Schwartz uncover this lost crime epic, delivering a gripping battle between a flawed hero and a twisted monster-- by turns horror story, political drama, detective thriller, and American tragedy. -- adapted from jacket
