In this excellent Victorian-era mystery, midwife Sarah Brandt and New York City Police Detective Sergeant Frank Malloy investigate the murder of a young woman who is found stabbed to death in Washington Square. Sarah gets involved in finding the murderer because her neighbor Nelson Ellsworth is considered a prime suspect by the police. (Nelson had a short, romantic involvement with the victim, Anna Blake). This is the fourth story in this great series. The plots keep getting better, and this one was a very well-thought out mystery.
