Treachery on Tenth Street

A Gilded Gotham Mystery, Book 3

As a heat wave engulfs New York in the summer of 1889, the city’s top models begin turning up dead, one by one, suggesting the work of a single killer. Society-girl-turned-investigative-journalist Genevieve Stewart is drawn into the case when Beatrice Holler, one of her friend Callie’s fellow models, is found with her throat cut.

Genevieve and her compatriot, wealthy Daniel McCaffrey, are joined by Callie to seek out the suspects, which leads them to search for answers from the members of the elite, notorious gangsters, and the city's most prominent painters.

In an era when London’s Jack the Ripper murders have everyone on edge, the police want to keep the killings quiet. But the bodies are piling up as fast as the suspects—and unless the killer is found, the simmering New York summer could boil over into madness.

Gilded Age Art World Murders

Genevieve and Daniel tackle a mystery of art models being murdered. We finally meet Genevieve’s brother Gavin who had been in Egypt for years and he figures largely in the unraveling of the mystery as does Esmie and Rupert and Callie. Totally enjoyable as are the previous books. Looking forward to reading/listening to the next mystery.
