Sinossi

Quirky Sleuths. Big Murders. Very Bad Alibis.

Lina Mercado notices what other adults dismiss: a shifted chair, a wrong shelf, a missing comfort object, a schedule changed too early. As a special-needs classroom aide, she knows routine is not decoration. It is safety. When district compliance director Graham Vossler is found dead in a sensory therapy room after a furious public meeting, Lina's friend Lila becomes the obvious suspect.

The official theory is reasonable. The room is not. A weighted blanket has been folded neatly, placed carefully, and left exactly where someone thought it should belong. The problem is that anyone who actually understands the room would know it does not belong there.

While administrators scramble to protect the district and everyone keeps insisting things were normal, Lina begins reconstructing the one thing a killer could not fake: the routine of a room built for people who depend on truth being predictable.

    1950, New York. Viviana Valentine—Girl Friday turned partner to New York’s top investigator, Tommy Fortuna—is drawn into a sordid new case when Buster Beacon, a wealthy man of science, beckons them to a party at his mansion north of the city. There, Buster entertains blue-blooded friends as well as investors keen to make a dollar on the many advancements made in his home laboratory, but he’s been hearing strange noises in the night coming from his expansive estate, and he doesn’t know who to trust. Once Viviana and Tommy arrive, the party is snowed in. And suddenly, there is a dead body and nowhere to hide. Who killed the disguised federal agent in their midst? And how have details from the top-secret lab become public? Once chomping at the bit to be brought into this mysterious life, Viviana wonders if she’s ready for the risks that come with the territory—risks that rise treacherously high as the killer targets the next victim. Set in the gritty noir world of 1950s New York City, Emily J. Edwards’s Viviana Valentine Goes Up the River packs all the elements mystery fans love: an irresistibly clever protagonist, a posh cast of heroes and villains, and a murder case that could defy even the most seasoned investigator.
