When Harvard professor Frank Lamont claims he spotted his brother, declared dead in the war, outside a bookshop, Ruth agrees to take on the case.

Facing threats, hidden enemies, and relentless danger, Ruth must navigate a city teeming with secrets. Alongside her childhood friend and budding romance, Eugene, and a young FBI agent desperate to find his missing partner, Ruth races to uncover the truth before the enemy silences them all. In a city where allies are few and enemies lurk in every shadow, Ruth will have to trust her instincts, and her heart, to survive. P.I. Darling is a thrilling historical mystery filled with heart, danger, and the relentless pursuit of justice.
