Description
<p><b><i>'A riveting and remarkable retelling of a true story.'</i> - SARA SHERIDAN</b><br><b><i>'A very enjoyable novel, one that can give pleasure and invite speculation at the same time.'</i> - THE SCOTSMAN</b><br><b><i>'His remarkable life story has, for the first time, been pieced together from myriad contemporary newspaper reports, historical archives and contradictory anecdotes to form a stunning new novel'</i> - SUNDAY POST</b><br><br><b>He kept his secret for a lifetime. Now the truth will rock New York.</b><br><br>It is 1901, and Dr Gallagher has just pronounced Murray Hall dead. <b>New York politico, gambler, womaniser</b> - Hall is all these things, but when the newspapers break the news of his death to the world, they reveal <b>a side to his identity he never wanted known, a secret no one could have guessed.</b><br><br>Sam Clellan, an ambitious young journalist, is determined to <b>uncover the truth of Hall's past</b>, but his search leads him down winding alleys of fact and fiction. <b>From humble beginnings in Glasgow's tenements to a life spent rubbing up against New York's political elite</b>, Murray Hall is the definition of a self-made man. But the higher his status rises, the higher the stakes become.<br><br><b>Inspired by a true story of one Scot's rise to prominence, <i>Murray Hall</i> unearths a queer past erased by history, finally bringing all the puzzle pieces together to discover the secret of this extraordinary, ordinary man, which shocked New York, America and the world.</b><br><br><i>'Murray Hall does what historical fiction does best: shines a light on the past to illuminate the present..</i><i>.'</i> - ANGIE SPOTO<br><br><i>'Deeply moving and immersive, </i><i>Milo Allan's extraordinary novel is a constantly shifting, chameleon-like thing, taking in gender, queerness, and grief.'</i> - ALLY WILKES</p>
