Death of a Mill Girl: A Josiah Beede Mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781440125010)

Once again, after many years, here is the first book in the critically acclaimed Josiah Beede series of historical mysteries. Critics praised its "richly realized setting and period details, impeccable plotting, and a wise hero made more appealing by his foibles."

Set in New England in 1836, the story concerns the murder of a beautiful young girl, one of many, hired to work like slaves in the new textile mills spawned by the Industrial Revolution.
