The Secret Investigator of Astor Street by Stephanie Morrill
Book 2 of Piper Sail Mysteries
Summary:
After high school graduation, Piper Sail isn’t quite sure what her future holds—until a possible murder case lands in her lap. Filled with both the glitz and glamor of high society and the dark mafia underbelly of 1920s Chicago, The Secret Investigator of Astor Street is perfect for fans of Agatha Christie and Maureen Johnson.
Piper Sail knows what she wants: to become a detective. After all, she already solved the case of her missing best friend, and there’s no shortage of crime in 1920s Chicago. But for an eighteen-year-old society girl—even one who’s currently dating a police investigator—it simply isn’t done.
That is, until a girl asks her to dig into her brother’s recent death. The police ruled it a suicide, but she's convinced it was murder. And she wants Piper to help her prove it.
Opening Lines:
I gaze up at the Applegates' imposing brick house and take a bracing breath. Mrs. Applegate has never liked me--the feeling is mutual--but Rebecca Jensen's disappearance is far more important than our petty disputes over the years.
