City Of Light by Lauren Belfer
Set in Buffalo at the turn of the 20th century during the Pan-American Exposition, this historical novel follows a woman entwined with the city’s burgeoning electrical industry as she becomes embroiled in a mysterious death that exposes rivalries among inventors, corporate greed, and political corruption; against the dazzling backdrop of the new age of electricity and escalating social tensions, the story probes ambition, gender, and the human cost of technological progress.
