Murder in Manhattan (by Julie Mulhern)

I love historical fiction books and the mystery aspect of this one was a positive spin that I really enjoyed. Metting Freddie Archer, a columnist of Gotham Magazine was enlightening. Freddie’s character was based on one of the first female columnists at The New Yorker. Life as an independent and strong female in the 20s was difficult. But Freddie was up for the challenge. Experiencing this time period and the speakeasies, bootlegging, fashion designers, and glamorous lifestyle pulled me into the story. And then observing Freddie’s tenacious personality and determination to follow the clues and solve the murder mysteries was enthralling. I have loved Julie Mulhern’s Country Club Murders and Poppy Fields series and seeing her branch out with a new type of book was exciting. I will definitely be on the lookout for future books by this author!
