The Last Legal Hanging (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781072033974)

A career as a private investigator, a hauntingly horrific cold case, a domineering mother and an infuriating assistant deputy marshal send Samantha Lawton's world spinning out of control. Couple all of that with a too-tight corset and a sensitive sniffer. Frankly, she's had better months. Set in Kansas City, Missouri during the 1890's and based on an actual crime, former Pinkerton agent Samantha Lawton partners with Robert Finnley (Finn) from the marshal's office to track down a fiend who disappeared with a small boy.Sam and Finn criss-cross the state searching the past for clues to the present. Accustomed to working alone, the two must overcome mutual distrust to crack the case. As they draw closer to a solution, everything is not as it seems and a disturbing picture comes into focus. The fact the fiend has already committed murder is not as terrifying as the fact the fiend is the boy's father. Will they find justice for all his victims or will the man eluding the law for many long years escape to kill again?
