NEW YORK, AUTUMN, 1907: Former private detective Molly Murphy Sullivan is happy with her place in the world. She and her policeman husband, Daniel, have built quite a life for themselves in Greenwich Village, in their modest-yet-beautiful home on Patchin Place, filled with family, friends, and laughter. Molly and Daniel have a good marriage, a true partnership in which they value each other's opinions in all things. So when he tells her they're moving to a fancy home on Fifth Avenue - and that he's running to be elected sheriff of New York - Molly is left reeling. Daniel begs Molly to trust him, but why would he run for sheriff on the Tammany ticket? A party known more for kickbacks and quid pro quo than anything else, it used to be everything Daniel despised. So what's changed? And why didn't he discuss it with her beforehand? Molly can't help but wonder what Daniel's got himself tangled up in - and whether he needs her help to get out.In the latest installment in this beloved series, the incomparable Molly is drawn into the dangerous world of politics and forced to navigate through a web of lies and deceit that is hidden behind a veil of vast wealth and grandeur.
