Austin Heaton finds a circa 1920s news reporter digging into suspicious activity when her husband is injured in a car accident and the driver shot in the head. Colorful descriptions of period landmarks and scenery add to the well-crafted storyline, bringing readers to a satisfying, yet unexpected, conclusion. - Review by \"IndieReader\" \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis feels a little more serious than the previous books in the series. The backdrop is the aftermath of WWI, and the stakes are high, with Sadie's husband in danger. It's kind of a mystery and redemption story rolled into one. I found the conclusion very satisfying. --- 5-Star Review from Author, Deborah Grant-Dudley, author of the Lost Mysteries series.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e P.
