Wicked City is a novel written by Grant Eugene Stevens and originally published in 1906. The book is set in New York City during the early 1900s and follows the story of a young man named John Law who moves to the city in search of fame and fortune. However, he quickly becomes entangled in the seedy underbelly of the city, including gambling, prostitution, and organized crime.As Law navigates the dangerous world of New York City, he becomes involved with a woman named Nellie, who is a prostitute and also involved with the city's criminal underworld. Despite their differences in social status, Law and Nellie fall in love and attempt to escape the city's corruption together.Throughout the novel, Stevens paints a vivid picture of the gritty and violent world of turn-of-the-century New York City. The book explores themes of love, loyalty, and the corrupting influence of power and greed. Wicked City is a classic work of American literature that offers a glimpse into a bygone era and the struggles of those who lived in it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
