3.5 Stars. I did not enjoy this book as much as the earlier ones in this series. More interaction between Frank and Sarah is needed and I think Maeve needs a bigger part in the investigating process. As always, I do love learning something new about New York City in the late 1800's. Hopefully #20 will be better.

Frank Malloy's first big case as a private investigator is a murder at a women's college. Abigail Northrup, a former student and current teacher, was found on the grounds of the college with a screwdriver sticking out of her eye. She was known as a "new woman"--a lady who does not need a husband to make her decisions. The police declare the incident a random attack and refuse to investigate. Frank asks Sarah for help in interviewing the lady professors who lived with Abigail. She finds that Abigail had a lot of secrets that she was ready to spill.
As far as mysteries go, I found this one just "OK". I was way ahead of Frank and Sarah in discovering Abigail's many secrets. I also figured out who killed her by the middle of the book. I did enjoy the discussions about the case between Frank, Sarah, Gino and Maeve. I also liked that Sarah's mother was called on once again to lend a hand. My rating: 3.5 Stars.
