Undercover Pinkerton agent Clare Wright must find a killer in this gripping historical mystery from New York Times bestselling author Dana Stabenow.

June, 1890. Clare Wright, Pinkerton agent masquerading as a Harvey Girl waitress, remains in Fred Harvey's employment, continuing her ruse to help track down the perpetrators of an elaborate plot.

A new Harvey House is opening at Fort Union in New Mexico, close to the nearby US Army base. When Clare and her colleague Florence discover the body of a missing girl, Clare organises an autopsy by the local army surgeon, but the results raise more questions than answers.

And this is no time for uncertainty. Fort Union is a hotbed of dissatisfaction. Army officers, Mexican grandees, and unscrupulous businessmen are all seeking something… and if Clare's hunch is right, that something could be murder, mutiny, and even treason, all connected to the thefts from Fred Harvey's businesses.

But with Harvey keen to get in over his head, and some people keen to take potshots at Clare herself, she has never been more glad of her trusty derringer.
