352 pages · First published 2022

In 1887 New York, Eunice Holbrooke has concealed her identity beneath heavy mourning clothes while helping run the Bleecker Street Inquiry Agency. Then Arthur Livingston arrives seeking a missing heiress—and Eunice realizes he is looking for her. Determined to avoid discovery, she accepts an undercover assignment, but escaping Arthur’s questions cannot keep her grandfather’s unsolved murder buried forever. Confronting her past draws her into family secrets, danger, and an unexpectedly promising romance. Witty exchanges and eccentric investigators bring a playful touch to this Gilded Age mystery, best enjoyed when you want hidden identities, tangled clues, and love amid the commotion.
