I love that this story takes place both in the present day and in 1876. It also takes place in San Francisco, a city ripe with history. The story is wrapped in a murder mystery which is another love of mine. I often stopped to Google a place or incident that arose during the read and it was obvious that Jaeger did a lot of research on this time in SF.
Though I figured out who the murder was and part of the why, there was a twist at the end that totally surprised me. A fast paced story that I throughly enjoyed.

I enjoyed The Dressmaker's Dowry very much. Took me a bit to be captured though. Certainly glad I read it.
