Deception by Gaslight, by Kate Belli, the first book in the Gilded Gotham Mysteries, transports the reader to the enchanting yet treacherous setting of New York City in 1888. The tale unfolds around the intrepid reporter, Genevieve Stewart, and her relentless pursuit to unmask the elusive thief known as Robin Hood who has been pilfering precious items from society’s elite.

Genevieve has her suspicions, with her keen eye fixed on the mysterious millionaire Daniel McCaffrey. Is he a hero? A scoundrel? How many of the rumors about him are true? Does he even have anything to do with the thefts?

Belli masterfully paints a vivid tableau of the gaslight era, immersing readers in an atmospheric world filled with intrigue and suspense. She guides you through a labyrinthine journey across New York City in an enthralling game of cat and mouse.

Billy there, he don’t like being followed, even by a lady as pretty as you.
