Fans of nineteenth-century sleuths like those of Anne Perry and Miriam Grace Monfredo will be well satisfied." ---Publishers Weekly(starred review) "Lively details of a lively time and place spice up a feisty heroine's struggles against sexism." ---Kirkus Reviews "Delightful . . . Sarah throws herself into [her] cases with her trademark bullheadedness, resourcefulness, and clever thinking, making for a spiffy little step-back-in-time mystery." ---The Oregonian "Sarah is a tenacious, gutsy woman who will do anything to prove her client's innocence and continually bucks society in her quest. Shirley Tallman does a masterful job of recreating the nineteenth-century setting. . . . Readers will be in Sarah's corner from the first page to the last. A thoroughly enjoyable read." ---New Mystery Reader "Sarah Woolson is spunky as hell---law was a very male profession in the 1880s---and San Francisco is a great locale." ---Contra Costa Times, "Credible characters, cleverly subtle clues, and a highly satisfying conclusion mark these intriguing tales as superior examples of [their] subgenres. . . .

Synopsis
Nineteenth-century attorney Sarah Woolson is still trying to get her life together. Against her family's wishes, she opens her own San Francisco law firm, only to find that clients---paying clients, that is---are wary of allowing a woman to manage their legal affairs. Just when her patience, as well as her money, are about to run out, Sarah and her friend and former colleague, Robert Campbell, attend a seance at San Francisco's Cliff House. Making their way through the worst storm of the season, they arrive at their destination to find themselves in for much more than, in Robert's words, "silly parlor tricks." After a dramatic display of spirit apparitions, flying trumpets, and phantom music, Madame Olga Karpova---a renowned Russian clairvoyant---and her guests make a grisly discovery: One of the twelve people seated at the table has been brutally strangled.Later, when two more seance participants are found slain, Sarah is pressed into defending the accused murderer. Working on her client's case, she quickly finds herself at the center of a complicated murder plot involving ghosts, gypsies, and City Hall, all the while facing off with Robert in a volatile legal battle and investigating her brother Frederick's shady political dealings. Hardly proper behavior for a nineteenth-century woman, but Sarah wouldn't have it any other way.Feisty and determined, Sarah continues to flout the notions of "proper" femininity in this series that is a turn-of-the-century answer to "Legally Blonde."", The serenely self-assured 19th-century lawyer Sarah Woolson is still trying to get her life together when she is suddenly involved in a complicated murder plot involving ghosts, gypsies, and City Hall--all while facing off with a fellow lawyer., Nineteenth-century attorney Sarah Woolson is still trying to get her life together.

- r***h (108)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaReally happy with this purchase. Both items are in excellent new condition, as described. The packaging was very well done. They were in a nice compact box that fit the books just right and an inner waterproof wrap which i greatly appreciated because we have had a lot of rain lately & unfortunately our mailbox flops open. It was nice to have dry books! Packing slip included. Based on this transaction, i definitely recommend this conscientious seller.
