Our Review

New York, 1925. "My husband should be dead, but he isn't." Penelope "Pen" Banks finally has what appears to be an interesting case for her fledgling investigative business. What she thought was a simple, tragic case of a wife abandonment has a rather daunting twist: Jane Peterson's husband isn't where he's supposed to be – dead in Wilmington. Pen soon discovers that Frank Peterson isn't the only missing resident from Winchester Court Apartments. Lady, the white-haired Persian cat of the Peterson's neighbor – an ever-partying flapper – has also disappeared. There are strange goings on at Winchester Court, which leads Penelope to believe the two are connected to something even bigger.
