Waiting on Wednesday 07/04/18
“Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme that first originated at Breaking the Spine but has since linked up with “Can’t Wait Wednesday” at Wishful Endings now that the original creator is unable to host it anymore. Either way, this fun feature is a chance to showcase the upcoming releases that we can’t wait to get our hands on!

Murder on Millionaires’ Row by Erin Lindsey (October 2nd, 2018 by Minotaur Books)
Not my usual type of read, I know, but then I’m a huge fan of Erin Lindsey from her epic fantasy Bloodbound trilogy and I was thrilled to discover she’ll be delving into the mystery genre. I’ve also just gotten an ARC so I’m super excited!
Erin Lindsey takes readers on a chase through Gilded Age Manhattan, filled with wonderful historical details, ghosts, romance, and Pinkerton detectives in Murder on Millionaires’ Row, a delightfully charming debut mystery.
Rose Gallagher might dream of bigger things, but she’s content enough with her life as a housemaid. After all, it’s not every girl from Five Points who gets to spend her days in a posh Fifth Avenue brownstone, even if only to sweep its floors. But all that changes on the day her boss, Mr. Thomas Wiltshire, disappears. Rose is certain Mr. Wiltshire is in trouble, but the police treat his disappearance as nothing more than the whims of a rich young man behaving badly. Meanwhile, the friend who reported him missing is suspiciously unhelpful. With nowhere left to turn, Rose takes it upon herself to find her handsome young employer.
The investigation takes her from the marble palaces of Fifth Avenue to the sordid streets of Five Points. When a ghostly apparition accosts her on the street, Rose begins to realize that the world around her isn’t at all as it seems―and her place in it is about to change forever.
Interesting cover-it’s like those old crime library novels I see on Nikki’s blog!

Yeah, she wrote a dark fantasy series about a detective before Bloodbound too, though this seems more like “pure” mystery to me.

I loved the first volume from Lindsey’s Bloodbound series and I keep telling myself I need to find the time to continue with it, so now I’m also curious about her new… adventure in a totally different genre! 🙂

I love that it’s in an entirely different genre too, but it seems like it will have an element of romance too, which I think she does really well!
