Author Emily J. Edwards takes Viviana Valentine to new
heights—and new lows—in this “firecracker
of a series” (Allison Epstein), perfect for fans of
Ashley Weaver and Rhys Bowen.
1950, New
York. Viviana Valentine–Girl Friday turned
partner to New York’s top investigator, Tommy
Fortuna–is drawn into a sordid new case when Buster
Beacon, a wealthy man of science, beckons them to a party at
his mansion north of the city. There, Buster entertains
blue-blooded friends as well as investors keen to make a
dollar on the many advancements made in his home laboratory,
but he’s been hearing strange noises in the night
coming from his expansive estate, and he doesn’t know
who to trust.
Once Viviana and Tommy arrive, the
party is snowed in. And suddenly, there is a dead body and
nowhere to hide. Who killed the disguised federal agent in
their midst? And how have details from the top-secret lab
become public? Once chomping at the bit to be brought into
this mysterious life, Viviana wonders if she’s ready
for the risks that come with the territory—risks that
rise treacherously high as the killer targets the next
victim.
Set in the gritty, noir world of 1950 New
York City, Emily J. Edwards’s Viviana Valentine
Goes Up the River packs all the elements mystery fans
love: an irresistibly clever protagonist, a posh cast of
heroes and villains, and a murder case that could defy even
the most seasoned investigator.
