Heading Uptown

Heading up town is the second book of Marissa Piesman I have read and I am on the 3rd. Close Quarters. The reading is light, filled with a lot of adj.You feel like you are there. The plot on the murders keeps you until the end of the book, with many who could have done it. There are a few more books of Ms. Piesman out there that I need to get.These books are down to earth.Anyone growing up in the 70's and 80's and before, Knows New York City, and are Jewish will love the book. I grew up in the 50's, only been to N.Y. City one time, and I am not Jewish, and I loved the books.
