Bridget Heaney, an Irish immigrant, spent her childhood as a pickpocket to support herself and her sister. But ever since she started cooking at the orphanage, she knew she wanted to cook in one of the big houses in New York. She lands a job with wealthy department store owner Isaac Gold, but on her first day discovers a body hidden inside the dough box. It's Gold's son, who has been missing for a few days. Bridget's street sense takes her from cook to crime solver.
Very good book for mystery and food fans alike. An interesting glimpse into what it was like to work in a wealthy home in 1860s New York.
