The Harvey Girl by Dana Stabenow

From the award-winning author of the Kate Shugak Mysteries, a thrilling new detective series set during America's wild boom time of the nineteenth century. WELCOME TO THE GILDED AGE. WHERE NOT EVERYTHING GLITTERS. 1890. The New Mexico Territory is a lawless frontier where criminals steal money and land alike with impunity. Everyone wears a six-gun and is ready and willing to draw it. In the new city of Montaña Roja, Fred Harvey’s growing empire is threatened by the robberies plaguing his newest Harvey House restaurant. To get justice, he needs a skilled detective to go undercover and procure answers to questions the law will not ask. The assignment falls to Clare Wright, a young Pinkerton agent. Disguised as one of Harvey’s famous hostesses, Clare travels west where she risks being exposed at every step of her investigation. To get answers – and to get out alive – there are only two things she can trust: her instincts, and her derringer. Reviewers love The Harvey Girl 'Smooth writing, interesting characters, and a mystery to boot... I love this book' Joe R. Lansdale ‘An absolute gem of a novel – a gripping story with great characters and fascinating history’ C.J. Box 'A richly researched, masterly plotted historical mystery' Sara Donati 'I adored this novel and can't wait for the next one' Douglas Preston
