The Beautiful Cigar Girl by Daniel Stashower
On July 28, 1841, the body of Mary Rogers, a twenty-year-old cigar girl, was found floating in the Hudson-and New York's unregulated police force proved incapable of solving the crime. One year later, a struggling writer named Edgar Allan Poe decided to take on the case-and sent his fictional detective, C. Auguste Dupin, to solve the baffling murder of Mary Rogers in "The Mystery of Marie Rogt."Daniel Stashower is a magician and novelist. Teller of Tales: The Biography of Arthur Conan Doyle, Elephants in the Distance, The Lovely Cigar Girl, The Ghosts of Baker Street, and The Seventh Bullet, a Sherlock Holmes novel, are among his works.
