pickEmma discovers a woman‘s body in the water at The New York Yacht Club. Everyone except for Emma concludes it was a suicide. This is another solid entry in this series. I especially liked the development of the relationship between Emma and Derrick. Thanks to NetGalley and Kensington for the free copy.
“Cold rain soaking her boots, splashing her stockings, and leaking from the brim of her ruined hat and onto her face was the least of Saffron Everleigh‘s worries.”

Mother solve 🔽
so-soAn interesting historical mystery that presents a fairly superficial view of the challenges faced by LGBTQ people in late 19th Century Chicago. Harriet Morrow has been hired as the first female detective of the Prescott Agency and tasked with locating, Agnes, a missing maid. She meets the fascinating Pearl Bartlett, encounters the Polish community, and is attracted to Barbara Wozniak. First in a series. I hope later books are stronger.
pickLeftover from #WinterGames this was a solid cosy murder mystery
