Synopsis

Robert Rubenstein has written a shocking sequel to Ghost Runners, a Jewish Book World Book Note. The White Bridge is historical fiction about racism in Twentieth Century America and its consequences. The murder of her young friend takes a woman news reporter on a journey over a crossing that must be undertaken though it rocks the very fabric of the American Dream.
Not in Germany, but here, before Hitler,in places like Lynchburg, Virg:inia, or hospitals in Stockton, California. Nothing is sacred until the final stone is laid in Arlington Cemetery when the solution to a murder lays bare the best and the worst of America.
Often with hysterical, dark humor, Rubenstein traces Ginger Lee's transfomation from a quintisessential American flapper to a woman of deadly intent. When visions of hell take her to a crossing on The Sassafras Bridge, the result is spellbinding.

'There was an evil about, skirting like a stone over the ocean that nobody could foresee, because long before Mengele came for their eyes, America already had gone blind."

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

America First has not been borne by the mad hands of modern-day racists. Oh no, our forebears were masters. The twentieth century is a guide-post of race hatred. And America has led the way. In The White Bridge, a cub reporter, Ginger Lee forges her own destiny in a man's world. Three years before, women couldn't vote. Daren't dream. But Ginger Lee does. But first she must run a gauntlet of misery. In the panorama of the rabbit hole, dark truths surface about America and its racist underbelly. And darker visions guide her beyond what it means to be a woman. To discover what it takes to be an avenging angel. A Cub Reporter for The Chicago Daily News, her pen will take us on a journey through the past century to catch a killer and in evil times.A cautionary tale for those of us who are a stone’s throw away from the bullies of the earth—those that would rip children from their mothers, put immigrants in shackles, and bring racism back, as a badge of honor. Hitler is always but a breath away, here in the land of the free, the home of the brave.
