1920's New York City
Desmond Cooper is nursing a broken heart.
He's so distraught, in fact, that his arrival in the Big Apple doesn't
go as planned. Instead of living it up at The Plaza Hotel, he ends up
wandering around a bad part of town and stumbling over a dead body!
Enter
feisty speakeasy proprietor Imogene, a woman unlike any Desmond has
ever met. She wields a pistol, drinks whisky out of a teacup, and won't
settle for anything less than the truth about the murder--even if it
means discovering one of her closest friends is the killer.
Will
she mend Desmond's heart in the process, or leave him wondering why out
of all the juice joints in the city, he had to wander into hers?
A
cozy historical mystery set in Prohibition-era New York, Half Seas Over
features characters from the Red Door Speakeasy Mysteries as well as
the Mrs. Lillywhite Investigates Mysteries.
