A glittering New York ball. A mysterious woman in white. A shocking murder that shatters the evening. In The Woman in the Alcove, Anna Katharine Green crafts an elegant and suspenseful mystery that follows young socialite Miss Van Arsdale, who becomes entangled in a case of murder, stolen jewels, and hidden identities. As both witness and amateur sleuth, the narrator uses her intelligence, independence, and keen sense of observation to help solve a puzzle that bewilders the police and entrances high society. With her signature attention to forensic detail and strong female leads, Green delivers a mystery as rich in emotional nuance as it is in criminal intrigue. Set in a world of ballrooms, secrets, and whispered reputations, this novel is a refined and gripping work that showcases the author’s pioneering contributions to detective fiction. A treat for fans of Agatha Christie and Wilkie Collins.
