Novels That Take on Real-Life Historical Puzzles
Submitted by mwilliams on Thu, 2008-04-03 23:40.I adore a good historical mystery. There’s something intriguing about pondering alternative possibilities of long ago events. For like minded bibliophilic sleuths, here are five of Christian Pelusi’s favorites.
Please do share your favorite unsolved puzzle novels if you got ‘em; I’m always looking.

I was hoping to see The Poe Shadow by Matthew Pearl in that list. A few of the ones on there look interesting, anyway.
Yeah, someone mentioned that book in the comments, too. Actually, this is the third or fourth time I've come across it, so maybe I should check it out.
