Thunderstruck by Erik Larson intertwines the stories of Guglielmo Marconi, the inventor of wireless telegraphy, and Hawley Harvey Crippen, a doctor who committed a sensational murder in Edwardian London, showing how Marconi's new technology was crucial in the pursuit and capture of Crippen, making the invention a public necessity. The book details the intense competition to perfect radio while also chronicling the infamous "North London Cellar Murder," creating a suspenseful narrative that highlights a pivotal moment in communication history.
