What readers are saying about this book

Summarized by Pango AI

PangoBooks readers find this book compelling due to its masterful weaving of two parallel stories: the creation of the Chicago World's Fair and the chilling actions of a serial killer. The narrative's blend of history, suspense, and detailed accounts of prominent historical figures keeps readers intrigued.
