ALLAN LEVINE is an award-winning and internationally selling writer, historian and educator. He attended universities in Winnipeg and Toronto and received a Ph.D. in history from the University of Toronto in 1985. He is the author of nine books, including The Devil in Babylon: Fear of Progress and the Birth of Modern Life, as well as the Sam Klein mystery trilogy which was published in Canada and Germany.

Evil of the Age is the first of a projected series of mysteries based in New York in the 1870s and featuring journalist Charles St. Clair. Based on actual events and newspaper headlines that shook New York during the summer of 1871, Evil of the Age combines Allan's two passions: history and writing.

Though just out, it has already garnered praise from across Canada. "Levine gives us a sense of place and atmosphere in a piece of writing that is more than the sum of its parts," writes Don Graves in The Hamilton Spectator. "Evil of the Age is history revealed in sordid and fascinating detail. It's also a mystery - a chilling a believable tale. It simply doesn't get any better than this."

Allan lives in Winnipeg with his wife Angie and their two children and, in addition to his writing, teaches history full time.
