“From the mob underworld to the tops of new skyscrapers, Floor 24 is a heart-thumping New York 1920’s historical mystery!” — Holly Newman, bestselling author of the A Chance Inquiry mystery series
Manhattan, 1926.
War veteran turned reporter Alan Priest never expected a falling pen to change his life. But when it leads him to the 24th floor of a Manhattan skyscraper, he finds an open window, a corpse on the pavement below—and a witness who swears he’s the killer.
Moments later, a policeman lies dead, and Alan is branded a murderer. In a city where the mob owns the cops and justice comes at a price, he has nowhere to run.
His only ally is Lorraine Marquette, a sharp-tongued hostess who knows the underworld all too well. Together, they’re forced into a deadly bargain: uncover the secret behind Fritch Designs, or end up in the East River with the rest of the mob’s enemies.
In a city of shadows and skyscrapers, where every floor hides a lie, Alan and Lorraine must survive a world where loyalty is a death sentence and the truth is more dangerous than a bullet.
Floor 24 is a dark, fast-paced noir mystery of murder, corruption, and survival on the mean streets of New York.
