Bringing to life turn-of-the-century New York and the scintillating career of one of its most famous architects, as well as the vices that cost him his life, this true-crime graphic novel tells the story of one of the most scandalous murders of the times. Stanford White was one of New York&;s most famous architects, having designed many mansions and the first Madison Square Garden; his influence on New York&;s look at the turn of the century was pervasive. As he became popular and in demand, he also became quite self-indulgent: he had a taste for budding young showgirls on Broadway, even setting up a private apartment to entertain them in, including a room with a red velvet swing. When he met Evelyn Nesbit&;an exquisite young nymph, cover girl, showgirl, inspiration for Charles Dana Gibson&;s drawing The Eternal Question and later for the movie The Girl in the Red Velvet Swing&;he knew he was on to something special. However, Evelyn eventually married a young Pittsburgh decadent heir with a dark side who developed a deep hatred for White and what he may or may not have done to her.
