Victorian era New York... A police force trying to find its legs... A lonely widowed midwife... Society matrons and a series of murders...
Victoria Thompson invites you to take a trip to the New York of the late 1800s... when "society" rules prevailed, when police only investigated murders if a "reward" was promised, a time when nationalities decided who could do what... a time of turmoil, a time of change....
It's a brilliant series of stories that transports the readers through a world that's long past gone... it's a journey worth taking...
