This series continues to be terrific! Quaker midwife Rose Carroll attends a fireworks display where Hannah Breed, a young unmarried Quaker who has confided in Hannah about her pregnancy, is found shot to death. Rose's quest to discover the killer, and possibly the father of Hannah's child, takes on new urgency when a fellow Quaker and freed slave Akwasi Ayensu is accused of the murder based on the evidence of unsavory factory manager Lester Colby. Can Rose help to bring Hannah's killer to justice before she herself becomes a victim?
I just love Edith Maxwell's writing! This series is wonderful historical fiction.
