The Styx

A powerful historical novel of greed, murder, and conspiracy set in turn-of-the-century Palm Beach

 The Great Migration of the 1890s remade south Florida as Northern developers, former sharecroppers, and recent immigrants rushed to the state to seek their fortunes. Sitting atop it all was the Royal Poinciana Hotel, built on the shores of Palm Beach by real estate tycoon Henry Flagler. Nearby was the Styx, an African American community that housed many of the Royal Poinciana?s 1,200 workers. Shortly after the hotel?s completion, the Styx would be mysteriously burned to the ground in a tragedy clouded for generations by rumor and myth?until now. Riveting and suspenseful, The Styx is a historical novel that brings to life the frenzy of Reconstruction-era Florida, the racial tensions simmering beneath the surface, and the events that changed one community forever.
