MURDER IN MIDTOWN
Book ID/图书代码： 06830019C00022
English Summary/英文概要： In 1913, while the women’s suffrage movement gains momentum in the nation’s capital, the thought of a woman joining the New York City police force is downright radical, even if recent transplant Louise Faulk has already solved a murder . . .
Louise has finally gathered the courage to take the police civil service exam, but when she returns to her secretary job at the midtown publishing house of Van Hooten and McChesney, she’s shocked to find the offices smoldering from a deadly, early morning fire. Huddled on the sidewalk, her coworkers inform her that Guy Van Hooten’s body has been found in the charred ruins. Rumors of foul play are already circulating, and the firm’s surviving partner asks Louise to investigate the matter.
Despite a number of possible suspects, the last person Louise expects to be arrested is Ogden McChesney, an old friend and mentor to her aunt Irene. Louise will have to search high and low, from the tenements in the Lower East Side to the very clouds above the tallest skyscrapers, to get to the bottom of an increasingly complex case . . .
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 1913年，虽然妇女选举运动在首都获得了良好的势头，但一个妇女加入纽约市警察部队的想法是彻底不为人接受的，即使最近加入的Louise Faulk已经解决了一桩谋杀案。
Louise终于鼓起勇气参加了警察公务员考试，但当回到Van Hooten和McChesney的位于市中心出版社担任秘书时，她惊讶地发现办公室陷入一场致命的清晨大火中。她蜷缩在人行道上，同事们告诉她，Guy Van Hooten的尸体在烧焦的废墟中被发现了。有关传言已经流传开来，公司幸存的合伙人要求Louise调查此事。
尽管有许多可能的嫌疑犯，最后一个Louise最不希望逮被捕的人是Ogden McChesney，她是艾琳阿姨的老朋友和导师。Louise将不得不到处搜索，从下东区的公寓到最高的摩天大楼上，只为了找到这个日益复杂的案件的真相。（YYW）
