North Star Conspiracy by Miriam Grace Monfredo
4.0
This is the second book in the series about librarian Glynis Tryon from Seneca Falls, New York. I think there are only five or six books in this particular series and I'll probably read them all. Not only does Monfredo write mysteries, but she pulls historical events into them, as well as people who were the movers and shakers of the time.
In her first book, Seneca Falls Inheritance, the historical events involved the Women's Movement and suffrage. In North Star Conspiracy, slavery and the Underground Railroad play an important part in the story.
I had trouble putting this book down once I started reading. I liked it more than Monfredo's first book; perhaps knowing the backgrounds of many of the characters helped, as I've invested in them and feel as if they're old friends.
I recommend this series and would have given this a 4.5 rating if partial stars were allowed!
