Another great one! Can't wait for Book 13!
Another great addition to the series. Molly just can't seem to stay out of trouble. This book is the latest installment in a series. You should really read the previous books, in order to understand the characters and their history. The series takes place in New York City in the early 1900's. There is a touch of religion in the book when Molly has an "encounter" (for lack of better word) with a (Catholic) convent. I was a little mad at Molly for being reckless. She IS pregnant in the story and she should have been more careful.
I hope Molly learned her lesson after this book. I am looking forward to the next Molly Murphy book.

Molly Murphy -- now Molly Sullivan -- is a year into her marriage, expecting her first child, and confined to the life of a housewife. Shes restless and irritable in the enforced idleness of pregnancy and the heat of a New York summer in 1905. So when a trip to the post office brings a letter addressed to her old detective agency asking her to locate a missing Irish serving maid, Molly figures it couldnt hurt to at least ask around, despite her promise to Daniel to give up her old career as a detective. On the same day, Molly learns that five babies have been kidnapped in the past month.
Refusing to let Molly help with the kidnapping investigation, Daniel sends her away to spend the summer with his mother. But even in the quiet, leafy suburbs, Mollys own pending motherhood makes her unable to ignore these missing children. What she uncovers will lead her on a terrifying journey through all levels of society, putting her life -- and that of her baby -- in danger.
The latest entry in Rhys Bowens bestselling Molly Murphy series will delight fans and win over newcomers with its elegantly plotted mystery, atmospheric historical detail, and vivid characters.
