When private investigator Simon Wolfe is hired to follow his friend’s wife under suspicion of adultery, he could never have guessed it would lead him into a friendship with the world’s leading writer, Ernest Hemingway. Nor could he have predicted the strange and disturbing twists the investigation would take. The case accelerates quickly when the wife is found murdered in a Key West hotel and discovered to have a secret life. But that revelation is downright boring as the plot thickens with increasingly bizarre revelations, capped off with a macabre ending no one saw coming.

New York City, 1910. Invisible until she’s needed, Jane Prescott has perfected the art of serving as a ladies’ maid to the city’s upper echelons. Then she takes up a position with the Benchley family, dismissed by the city’s elite as "new money". The Benchleys cause further outrage when their daughter Charlotte becomes engaged to notorious playboy Norrie, the son of the eminent Newsome family. But when Norrie is found murdered at a party, Jane discovers she is uniquely positioned - she’s a woman no one sees, but who witnesses everything - and therefore has the tools to solve his murder.

Washington City, 1864. One has to be careful with talk of secession, of Confederate whispers falling on Northern ears. Better to speak only when in the company of the trustworthy, like Mrs. Surratt. A widow who runs a small boardinghouse on H Street, Mary Surratt isn't half as committed to the cause as her son, Johnny. If he's not delivering messages or escorting veiled spies, he's inviting home men like John Wilkes Booth, an actor who is even more charming in person than he is on the stage.

Another Fun Mystery with "Twain"
I do like the writing style even if somehow in the back of my mind I feel I'm reading Murder He Wrote in 1800s lol. Again enough twists and turns to keep me interested. I am listening and the reader does a great job interpreting the characters. I do like the interesting side tidbits describing the city or some historical (or semi-historical as it were) stories. Some of the voodoo descriptions and scenes seemed a little long/drawn out but overall were important in context of how these activities were perceived/experienced in the era and would have affected thought processes at that time even if today we may or may not think similarly...
