Denver, 1885.  Beret, in NY, receives word that her sister has been murder.  Further, the former society girl, was found working in a brothel.  What led to her sister's downfall and murder?  Beret travels by train to Denver and proceeds to "help" the detective on the case find the killer.

The look at historic Denver was very interesting to me.

15th Affair by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro.

Meh.  I don't know why I keep reading these, or trying to.  There are so many books out there.

Latest installment of the Women's Murder Club series.  Another mash-up of stories with hardly a resolution at the end.  Did they ever confirm who killed everyone at the Four Seasons?  If they did, I can't remember it, which doesn't bode well for the story.  Also, surprise* revelations about Lindsey's husband, Joe.   The real mystery is where they found this incredible babysitter who is available 24/7 and also cooks and cleans for them.  HAHAHAHA

2.5 stars.
