As a midwife in the turn-of-the-century tenements of New York City, Sarah Brandt has seen her share of suffering and joy, birth and death. Now, she learns that crime doesn’t discriminate, when the highest echelons of society are rocked by murder… A Gaslight Mystery At a summons from Detective Sergeant Frank Malloy, Sarah arrives at the elegant home of famed magnetic healer Edmund Blackwell to find his wife in labor—and the good doctor dead from an apparent suicide. Only Malloy sees what no one else wants to: that Blackwell was murdered in his own home… After a successful delivery, the Blackwell baby falls mysteriously ill. Relying on her nurse’s training and woman’s intuition, Sarah discovers the source of the baby’s sickness—and discovers a scandal that leads Malloy’s investigation down a gilded path paved with greed, deception, and desire…

An electrifying game of cat-and-mouse between an imprisoned mastermind and a crime writer with a hidden past. In this darkly suspenseful novel, Lizbeth Greene, a celebrated crime novelist whose inspiration has run dry, seeks out Wilson Velez, a gang lord just removed from five years of solitary confinement. Convinced that writing a book about Velez could revive her ailing career, Lizbeth persuades Wilson's attorney to allow her to visit the notorious convict in his high-security Philadelphia prison. While the two engage in a complex and fascinating dance of attraction and rejection, their increasingly intimate and dangerous exchanges build to an unforgettable climax.

What could possibly connect two solitary beings--a former Opéra de Paris dancer and an elusive man whom everyone fears? New York, 1954. On the roof of an apartment building, a young woman patiently tends to her beehives and seems to be longing for someone or some thing. In the building across the street lives a kingpin of crime, isolated from the world, except for one mysterious weekly outing. They don't know each other, but they can see one another. Between them: the void, a police car, and a private fenced-in park under lock and key. Gramercy Park is one of those rare graphic novels that defies the obvious and clichéd, allowing the reader the freedom to wander in this mysterious adventure and get lost in the poetic script of Timothée de Fombelle and embrace the delicate drawings and muted colors of Christian Cailleaux. Nominated for a 2019 Angoulême Award.
