Jim Eldridge recommends
Hot Time (2022)
W H Flint
"More than a murder mystery, Hot Time is a whodunnit that becomes a fast moving and suspenseful chase thriller. The characters are excellently drawn, coming alive on the page. I am blown away by W. H. Flint's immaculate research, his creation of characters, his depictions of real people from that time who feature - Theodore Roosevelt, J. P. Morgan, Minnie Gertrude Kelly, and others. This novel will tell you more about what life was really like for New Yorkers in the latter part of the nineteenth century that any work of nonfiction."
