Experience the 1910s and World War I era New York with reporter-turned-investigator, Kitty Weeks:
"A delightfully spunky heroine defies convention as an investigative reporter in this engaging historical mystery. The small factual details of New York life are gems." Rhys Bowen, New York Times bestselling author
“This lively and well-researched debut introduces a charming historical series and an appealing fish-out-of-water sleuth who seeks independence and a career in an age when most women are bent on getting married...” Library Journal (STARRED review), Debut Mystery of the Month
"The fascinating historical details add flair to this thoroughly engaging mystery..." Booklist
"Vatsal deftly intertwines the tumult of the era, from emerging women's rights to spreading international conflict, into this rich historical." Publisher’s Weekly
"Vatsal‘s debut... doesn’t read like a first novel. First novels aren’t supposed to be this self-assured, or detailed, or full of three-dimensional characters (both real and fictional) who vividly bring the 1910s to life...” E.A. Aymar, ITW The Thrill Begins, Debut Author Spotlight
MURDER BETWEEN THE LINES
"I really and truly could not put it down... Vatsal succeeds once again in fleshing out a strong-willed, ambitious, and thoroughly delightful young heroine..." Susan Elia MacNeal, New York Times-bestselling author of the Maggie Hope series
"[The] combination of a feisty protagonist with a tumultuous, fast-changing era remains a winning formula." Publisher's Weekly
“World history, science, the women’s suffrage movement, and the life and times of early twentieth-century America are skillfully woven through the story of a privileged young woman finding her place in the world..." Booklist
"Vatsal is an exceptional writer and gifted historian... [Her] books allow us to reflect on the small fires that led to the conflagration [of World War I], and they allow us to recognize that the fight for female equality is not a recent endeavor." Falls Church News-Press
"Kitty Weeks returns in this pacey, cleverly-plotted story... She mines [the medical history of the period] to great effect in the novel, both as a plot device for her mystery and to enrich the reality of Kitty’s world." E.M. Powell, The Big Thrill
