I only opted for this one to fill a category in the Kindle Summer Reading Challenge, but it's ended up being pretty decent. A bit overstuffed and pretty "Rah, Rah, New York" and I've a few plot point issues. But it made for decent (mostly) commute/lunch reading.

I enjoyed this mystery: the writing was good, the plot tight, the historical details fascinating and characters are interesting. I hope these turn into a series.

Set in New York (1880) Elizabeth van der Brock finds a dead woman in the hole dug for the installation of the Egyptian obelisk. This is only the first killing by the mysterious “Osiris.” Elizabeth, a pioneering journalist finds that her work puts those she cares about are in jeopardy.
