Third in a series of light murder mysteries, set during the 1848 Woman’s Rights Convention in Seneca Falls, NY. The main character is a small-town librarian, Glynis Tryon. In this book Jacques Sundown, the half-Iroquois deputy, is accused of murder, and his trial shines a spotlight on the fear and prejudice of Native Americans. The main characters are fictional but the setting, the sexism and racism of the 19th century are real. I enjoyed this book and intend to search out the rest in the series and look for other books by this author.

I enjoyed this book and intend to search out the rest in the series and look for other books by this author. Ms. Monfredo's Glynis Tryon historical mystery series is a winner. I am so happy to have discovered it. This is the third book in the series. The series is set in upstate New York in the mid-eighteen hundreds. This series is best read in order as the historical sequencing is very important. In this book there appears to be a particularly intelligent murderer in Seneca Falls as one after another of some of the founding fathers is found dead by apparent accident or natural causes. Glynis and her friends, Sherriff Stuart, the lawyer Merrycroft and a new lady doctor find they have to dig back ten years or so to try to make some sense of it all. There is marvellous historical detail in these books and some real historical figures. This third book is the strongest so far in an unusually strong series. I cannot recommend this wonderful series enough. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
