Murder on St. Nicholas Avenue: A Gaslight Mystery

The author of Murder on Amsterdam Avenue returns to nineteenth-century New York City to find Christmas in the air, a police detective and a midwife with love in their hearts, and a wealthy newlywed with blood on her handsâ‚¬Â¦

Detective Sergeant Frank Malloy and Sarah Brandt are not the only ones who have recently tied the knot. Family friend Mrs. Oâ‚¬Neill was delighted when her daughter Una wed the seemingly wealthy and charming Randolph Pollock. She didnâ‚¬t wonder why such an affluent man would want to marry a poor Irish girl, no matter how pretty she was. But now Mrs. Oâ‚¬Neill has a problem.

Pollockâ‚¬s servants have found their employer bludgeoned to death with Una cradling his body. Rendered mute by the horror of her husbandâ‚¬s death, Una cannot explain what happened, so the police have charged her with murder and locked her away in the Tombs to await trial.

Mrs. Oâ‚¬Neill would like Frank to investigate the case and save Una, yet with Frank and Sarah still on their honeymoon, itâ‚¬s up to the other members of their newly formed household to do some detective work. But solving the mystery behind Pollockâ‚¬s death means first discovering the truth about who he really isâ‚¬Â¦
