Description
The second book in the Art Deco Mystery Series, set in New York in the 1930s.
Finally summoning the courage to face the past, Lane Sanders breaks away from her busy job at City Hall to confront childhood nightmares in Rochester, Michigan. An unknown assailant left Lane with scattered memories after viciously murdering her parents. However, one memory of a dazzling solid gold pawn piece remains—and with it lies a startling connection between the midwestern tragedy and a current mystery haunting the Big Apple . . .
Meanwhile, fears climb in Manhattan after the disappearance of a respected banker and family friend threatens the crippled financial industry and the pristine reputation of Lane’s virtuous boss, Mayor Fiorello “Fio” La Guardia. Fio’s fight to restore order leads him into more trouble as he meets a familiar foe intent on ending his mayoral term—and his life . . .
"Engaging, vivid, and intriguing, this historical mystery is…an action-packed adventure with quirky characters, snappy dialogue, a hint of romance - and starring one of the pluckiest, most entertaining heroines ever." HANK PHILLIPPI RYAN, author of Trust Me
