Sometimes I like to change it up and read something totally different from my usual fare. When I saw this book on the CFBA, I snapped it right up. I haven’t read it yet, but it looks delightful. Here’s the scoop:
Native Arizonan Carol Cox has an abiding love for history, mystery, and romance. The author of more than 25 books, she believes in the power of story to convey spiritual truths.

ABOUT THE BOOK
When costume-maker Ellie Moore suddenly finds herself out of a job in the middle of a bleak Chicago winter, she uses her knowledge of theatrical disguise to secure a position as an undercover operative with the Pinkerton Detective Agency. Her assignment: find the culprit behind the theft of silver shipped from the mines near Pickford, Arizona.
Disguised as Lavinia Stewart, a middle-aged widow, Ellie begins her investigation. Soon she finds she must also pose as the dazzling young Jessie Monroe, whose vivacious personality encourages people to talk.

Cute cover and working undercover with the Pinkerton Detective Agency – looks like a great combination to me. Will let you know what I think after I’ve read it.
