This is the second installment in the Timothy Wilde series set in mid-1840s in New York. Wilde is one of the first New York "copper stars" (i.e., NYPD), who, in this book, deals with kidnappers of both runaway slaves and free blacks. Faye's dialogue, characters, and portrayal of the city's underbelly are compelling and engaging -- highly recommended.

The entire Timothy Wilde series is fantastic, but this one is my favorite. Lyndsay Faye is an amazing writer who paints such real, believable characters. She manages to weave in a mystery, and tons of interesting historical information, but in a way that's absolutely lyrical and magical and enthralling. I adore the entire trilogy. Any review I write can't possibly do it justice. I can't recommend it highly enough. READ IT NOW!
