Floor 24

From the mob underworld to the tops of new skyscrapers, Floor 24 is a heart-thumping New York 1920's historical mystery! - Holly Newman, bestselling author of the Chance inquiry mystery series Manhattan, 1926. A pen falls from a high rise and shatters at the feet of New York World reporter and World War vet Alan Priest. Its broken barrel bears the name and office of Fritch Designs on the 24th floor. On a whim, he investigates. After he reaches Floor 24, he finds a window open and a corpse on the sidewalk below. A gawker from a nearby office window recognizes the corpse by her dress, sees Alan looking out the victim's window and screams. Someone bolts from the office, and a hasty pursuit ends in a policeman being hurled to his death and Alan being accused of both murders. He seeks shelter with the help of gentlemen's club hostess Lorraine Marquette, which lands both of them in police custody. But the mob king of New York has the police in his clutches and soon Alan and Lorraine find themselves released solely to uncover the secret behind Fritch Designs, a secret that could cost them their lives as they evade assassins and brave the lethal heights of a city growing at a mad pace. Floor 24 is a heart-stopping, old-fashioned adventure with a reckless pace and breakneck twists.
