Description
San Diego, California, 1868: Soon after they arrive from San Francisco, sophisticated Lucy McBride and her clever chaperone, Yingwu Wei, find themselves entangled in a mysterious death. Still very much the “wild west,” where bullfights in the Plaza de Armas and public hangings (poor Yankee Jim!) in El Campo Santo Cemetery are everyday spectacles, the duo must adapt to the rough-and-ready ways of the tiny, frontier town while conducting their own amateur—and often comical—investigation. Throw in a dashing, blue-eyed deputy, and Lucy’s quickly in deeper than she bargained for.
This meticulously researched historical fiction mystery combines real-life 19th-century Old Town, San Diego citizens with characters from the author’s imagination. Join Miss Lucy and company as she: Dances the Fandango at Casa de Estudillo Attends the Tanner Theater Troupe’s premier performance Participates in a spooky séance at the Whaley House Causes mayhem in the saloon at the Franklin House
