The mystic's accomplice  Cover Image Book Book

The mystic's accomplice / Mary Miley.

Summary:

"It's 1924, and Maddie Pastore has it made. A nice house, a loving husband with a steady job--even if it is connected to Chicago's violent Torrio-Capone gang--and a baby on the way. But then Tommy is shot dead, and she learns her husband had a secret that turns her life upside down. Penniless and grieving, Maddie is only sure of two things: that she will survive for the sake of her baby, and that she'll never turn to the mob for help. So when she's invited to assist a well-meaning but fraudulent medium, she seizes the chance. She's not proud of her work investigating Madam Carlotta's clients, but she's proud of how well she does it. When Maddie unearths potential evidence of a dark crime, however, she faces a terrible dilemma: keep quiet and let a murderer go unpunished, or follow the trail and put herself and her baby in mortal danger."-- Inside jacket.
