New York's famed female detective duo, Pentecost and Parker, are
back in their fourth audacious adventure. Perfect for fans of The
Thursday Murder Club, The Marvellous Mrs. Maisel, Agatha Christie
and M. C. Beaton. When Vera Bodine, an elderly recluse with an
exceptional memory, goes missing, detective duo Lillian Pentecost
and her assistant Willowjean "Will" Parker are hired to track her
down. But New York City in 1947 is a dangerous place, and there's
no shortage of people who want to bury the secrets that Bodine has
been keeping. As the clock is ticking to find Bodine alive,
circumstances conspire to pull both investigators off the case.
Will is hot on the trail of a stick-up team who are using her name
- and maybe her gun - for their own ends. While Lillian finds
herself up against murder-obsessed millionaire Jessup Quincannon,
who has discovered a secret from her past that threatens to destroy
her. To solve this mystery, and defeat their own personal demons,
the pair must go nose-to-nose with murderous gangsters, make deals
with conniving federal agents, confront Nazi spies, and bend their
own ethical rules to the point of breaking - before time runs out
for everyone.
