520    "Vivian Gordon went out before midnight in a velvet dress 
       and mink coat. Her body turned up the next morning in a 
       desolate Bronx park, a dirty clothesline wrapped around 
       her neck. At her stylish Manhattan apartment, detectives 
       discovered notebooks full of names--businessmen, 
       socialites, gangsters. And something else: a letter from 
       an anti-corruption commission established by Governor 
       Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Led by the imperious Judge 
       Samuel Seabury, the commission had uncovered a police 
       conspiracy to frame women as prostitutes. Had Vivian 
       Gordon been executed to bury her secrets? As FDR pressed 
       the police to solve her murder, Judge Seabury pursued the 
       trail of corruption to the top of Gotham's powerful 
       political machine--the infamous Tammany Hall"--
