In the shadows of New York’s wealthiest avenues, where secrets fester behind gilded doors, a peculiar invitation draws the sharp-eyed Quaker Detective, Old Broadbrim, into the labyrinth of luxury and deceit.
On a seemingly uneventful Thursday, a letter from one of Fifth Avenue’s wealthiest magnates, Custer Kipp, lures the detective into a strange bargain he cannot refuse. Kipp, a man surrounded by immense wealth yet haunted by whispers of betrayal, offers Broadbrim a puzzle with no apparent crime—until the detective digs deeper.
In a mansion where every polished surface reflects more than opulence, Old Broadbrim must navigate the lives of Kipp’s ward, the captivating young Nora Doon, and his wayward son Foster, whose absence hints at dark secrets lurking beneath the surface. As the walls close in, alliances blur, and every clue brings the detective closer to a dangerous truth—one that could cost him everything.
Intrigue, power, and mystery collide in a high-stakes game where nothing is as it seems. Can Old Broadbrim unravel the enigma before it consumes them all?
For fans of Sherlock Holmes and tales of hidden treachery, Old Broadbrim's Strange Bargain is an unmissable journey into the heart of 19th-century suspense. Click "Buy Now" and uncover the truth that will leave you breathless!
