A Murder in Washington Square
(2022)(The fifth book in the Penelope Banks Murder Mystery series)
A novel by Colette Clark
A little late-night mischief reveals a body…that promptly vanishes.
New York, 1925
Penelope “Pen” Banks and a few other zozzled young friends have decided to do something rather daring: break into the Washington Square Park Arch in an attempt to recreate the infamous affair of 1917.
Their impromptu party at the top is cut short by a violent thunderstorm. But not before Penelope glimpses, in a single flash of lightning, the body of a woman next to the fountain below.
By the time the partiers make it back down, the body has vanished.
In a case centered around Washington Square—where the students of New York University, patrons of the infamous Black and Tan saloons, bohemian artists of Greenwich Village, and entrenched old money collide—Penelope, now working even more closely with Detective Richard Prescott and her usual set of friends, plans on finding out exactly what happened that night.
A Body in Washington Square is the fifth book in the Penelope Banks Murder Mysteries series set in 1920s New York. The enjoyment of a historical mystery combined with the excitement, daring, and danger of New York during Prohibition and the Jazz Age.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
