"Molly Murphy has finally begun to forget the unpleasant murder of a would-be rapist back in Ireland and is free to begin her life in New York City. Given her experiences so far in the New World, Molly's first order of buisness is to become a private investigator, working for families in Europe who've lost touch with relatives in America. Paddy Riley is a tough old Cockney P.I. who specializes in divorce work, and with a little persuasion he's ready to take on Molly as an aprrentice. It's not exactly what she imagined, but she plans to make the most of it. That is, until she comes to work one day to find her new world turned upside down. Before long, Molly has set off on a journey that will take her through the back alleys of Manhattan and into the bars and lounges of the literary scene, where she spends time with writers, actors, poets, and musicians. Armed with nothing more than her fiery will and matching wild red hair, Mollly has no idea of the danger her pursuit may bring in this fascinating, well-researched, and suspenseful second novel in Bowen's bestselling series."--Back cover.
