Murder in the Boston Public Garden (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798235510753)

Boston, 1930s. In a city where old Yankee families guard their status and newcomers fight for respectability, reputation is everything.

When society hostess Mrs. Mott hosts a lavish garden party in Boston Public Garden to honor philanthropist Gordon White, it should be a golden afternoon. Instead, a photographer from the Boston Globe is found dead, his camera and negatives missing. Someone among the well-heeled guests killed to keep a secret hidden.

Amanda Halloran, born a Burnside and married into the sprawling Irish-Catholic Halloran clan, moves between both worlds with grace and a keen eye. Her husband Brendan is a Detective Lieutenant with the Boston Police, a man of quiet authority and sharp instincts. With her connections to both the Brahmin elite and the police investigation, Amanda may be the only one who can unravel the truth.

A cozy mystery rooted in the manners, prejudices, and hidden alliances of Depression-era Boston. Perfect for fans of traditional, character-driven mysteries.
