Garrett Investigates
“After a winter and a summer of hard drought that had dropped the Hudson fifteen feet before it ever reached thirsty New Amsterdam, the weather turned wild enough to render travel a chore. Even Detective Crown Investigator Garrett might have cancelled her much-anticipated engagement at the Earl of Westchester’s country house if social excuses had not become so rare now, with the colonies on the verge of being drawn into the Empire’s war on France and the rebellion of the southern Iroquois shaman...-sorcerers likely to sweep them into another Indian War.
A war on two fronts. It didn’t bear considering. And Garrett had been doing more than considering for some time now, because that war’s fruition was all the excuse the secessionists needed to break with the Crown. It was with that Crown that Garrett’s duty lay—through the auspices of Richard, New Amsterdam’s Duke. So she had grown accustomed to sleeping in carriages and eating standing up.
It was a relief to dress her role as Lady Abigail Irene and leave D.C.I.MoreLess
