ABOUT THE BOOK

Title: The Red Canary
Author: Rachel Scott McDaniel
Publisher: Smitten Historical Romance
Release Date: November 10, 2020
Genre: Christian Historical Romance

Music sparks her world, but can love ignite her heart?

In 1928, soot from the local mills and music from speakeasies linger in the Pittsburgh air. When the manager of The Kelly Club is found dead, nightclub singer Vera Pembroke is thrust into peril. As the only witness to the crime, she’s sentenced to hide away in the Allegheny Forest with a stuffy police sergeant as her guardian.

Sergeant Mick Dinelo harbors a burning hatred for Pittsburgh’s underworld after the devastation it left on his life—and heart. He should be out exposing the culpable gangsters rather than tending to the impetuous woman who defies his every effort to keep her safe.

Mick and Vera must set aside their differences to solve the murder that someone wants to keep buried beneath the soot of Steel City.

My Thoughts

What a fun story about life in the roaring twenties! Rachel McDaniel has given us a beautiful portrait showcasing a speakeasy and a lovely young lady in those good old days.

Vera. What a heroine. I liked her character from the very beginning.

I liked her character from the very beginning. She’s fallen into hard times and is singing in an illegal bar. Then things go from bad to worse when she is the only witness to a murder, and is forced to disappear for her own safety.

This book is a delight. It brings to life the days of the twenties. And Pittsburgh, and all it’s glitz and glamor back in the day.

I especially liked the hint of mystery, murder, and suspense mixed in.

And I can’t forget the hero, Mick. The police man. He’s protecting Vera, and trying to protect himself from her.

These two have had some difficult things in their pasts, and neither one of them are looking for any kind of real relationship.

This is an excellent read, particularly if you enjoy historical fiction.
