The Prisoner's Apprentice
Cheyenne Richards
Clever Boy. Genius Killer. True Story.
In his father's jail, young Albert finds what he's always wanted: a teacher who understands him. But some lessons exact a terrible price.
When brilliant murderer Edward Rulloff is imprisoned in Ithaca, he offers Albert an education most boys in 1846 could only dream of—languages, philosophy, and the chance to become extraordinary. Under Rulloff's patient tutelage, Albert transforms from a lonely child into a gifted scholar. Yet as their unique friendship deepens, Albert begins to suspect that his mentor's acts of kindness mask a growing darkness. Each new lesson draws them closer to a terrible choice between loyalty and justice.
Based on a shocking true story that captivated nineteenth-century America, The Prisoner's Apprentice delivers a haunting exploration of what drives men to greatness—and to darkness. In the tradition of The Alienist and Devil in the White City, this atmospheric historical thriller weaves true crime and psychological suspense into a gothic tale that blurs the lines between genius and madness.
Winner of multiple historical fiction awards including the 2022 IRDA Award, Eric Hoffer Award Finalist, and B.R.A.G. Medallion Honoree.
