She has a family of her own now: she and Daniel have a baby son and twelve-year-old Bridie is living with them as their ward. As Molly and the children listen to carolers in the street, they hear a lovely voice, the voice of an angel, and see a beggar girl huddled in a doorway, singing \"Away in a Manger.\" Bridie is touched by the girl's ragged clothes and wants to help her out if they can. They give her a quarter, only to watch a bigger boy take it from her. But Molly discovers the boy is the girl's older brother. They've come from England and their mother has disappeared, and they're living with an aunt who mistreats them terribly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMolly quickly realizes that these children are not the usual city waifs. They are well-spoken and clearly used to better things. So who are they? And what's happened to their mother? As Molly looks for a way to help the children and for the answers to these questions, she gets drawn into an investigation that will take her up to the highest levels of New York society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for Rhys Bowen and the Molly Murphy Mysteries\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“One of the great mystery writers working today.” --Louise Penny\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Molly is sassy, saucy, brave and smart.” --\u003ci\u003eThe Huffington Post\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Molly Murphy, the plucky star of Rhys Bowen’s mystery series…likes to fight for the underdog.” --\u003ci\u003eUSA Today\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Readers will surely testify that Murphy has become one of their favorite characters… This book is a keeper.” --\u003ci\u003eTampa Tribune\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Molly is an indomitable creature.” --\u003ci\u003eWashington Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781250052063\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Minotaur Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40623891415246,"sku":"9781250052063","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_731d697e-8130-44d0-a6bd-25f8c3f85b02.jpg?v=1643195516","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781250052063","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
