Death on Telegraph Hill

A female lawyer in nineteenth-century San Francisco investigates her brother’s shooting in this “excellent” mystery with “a dogged and fearless sleuth” (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

San Francisco, 1882. crusading lawyer Sarah Woolson and her brother, Samuel, have just had a delightful time meeting the young Oscar Wilde at a friend’s home on Telegraph Hill. But as they make their way home, a bullet pierces the fog, striking Samuel. Who could want to hurt such a delicate soul? Was he even the intended target? Determined to find answers, Sarah discovers more murder and mayhem on Telegraph Hill.

With Death on Telegraph Hill, Shirley Tallman delivers an exciting whodunit with a trailblazing heroine in a time and place when a nice young woman was supposed to be found in the drawing room instead of the courtroom.
