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…

Murder on Gramercy Park was another mystery that was pretty easy to figure out, but the real draw to this series are Sarah and Malloy themselves. I really enjoy reading about them and their interactions with each other and the other people in their lives, particularly Malloy and his son Brian. Malloy is slowly growing as a character and I'm pleased with the direction he is going. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

This was a great story. I really enjoy watching Frank and Sarah dance around each other. I can't wait to see what the next book holds.

This is the perfect balance of personal connections, mystery, and history all mixed into one entertaining installment/series. I have especially enjoyed the transformation of Malloy's character.

I can't wait to start the next installment.

Really like this author's writing style. I just don't like it when I'm able to figure out who the guilty person is half way through the book.
