Blackstone and the New World
July, 1900.
Sam Blackstone has only gone to New York to pick up a prisoner, but he soon finds himself drafted in to investigate the murder of Inspector O'Brien, a man famed for rooting out police corruption.
Working with Alex Meade, an enthusiastic young detective who worshipped O'Brien, Blackstone scours the heights - and the depths - of the city, in search of the killer. And the more he searches, the more he becomes convinced that the police department doesn't really want the murder to be solved ...
Praise for Sally Spencer..."This engaging procedural offers an entertaining look at policing in New York at the end of the Nineteenth century" Booklist on Blackstone and the New World
"Spencer's procedural, set in the bustling New York City of 1900, offers a fresh venue for the hero and provides a satisfying twist at the end" Kirkus Reviews on Blackstone and the New World
"Strong and varied characters, a fine period mystery with a clever plot" Booklist on Blackstone and the Heart of Darkness
