HIGHLIGHTS: THE LAST FATAL HOUR

The Last Fatal Hour
By Jan Matthews
Blurb:
A budding socialite haunted by war steps into the Brooklyn Heights world of whispers, seances, and murder.
For Leona Gladney, former woman soldier of the Union Army, life goes on despite the echoes of the battlefield in her heart. Now a suffragist and budding socialite in Brooklyn Heights, she yearns for a literary life and family. But her husband’s business partner embezzles their money and disappears.
The society matrons of Brooklyn Heights turn a gimlet eye on Leona after the suspicious death of a wealthy friend. Leona will do anything to find justice for her friend and clear her own name, but she finds only secrets, seances and murder.
