PEARLS AND POISON (Rose Gallagher #4) by Erin Lindsey will be released on December 2, 2025, by Severn House.
Pinkerton agent Rose Gallagher is now working solo, and she has just landed her first case. Several suspicious deaths have taken place inside an empty building on Pearl Street in New York City. The deaths appear to be suicides, but the mysterious markings on a nearby brick wall and missing jewelry connected to the victims leads Rose to believe that the paranormal is involved. With the murderer stalking her and threatening her loved ones, Rose is racing to close the case before someone else dies.
I read the first three books in the Rose Gallagher series years ago, and I’m excited that she’s back and now working as a solo Pinkerton agent. The abrupt departure of her mentor and love interest leaves Rose to figure things out on her own. Without much backing from the Pinkerton Agency, Rose does her best to figure things out on her own. She’s tenacious and refuses to quit no matter how dangerous it gets. I’m a big fan of Rose, and I thoroughly enjoyed PEARLS AND POISON. Erin Lindsey really brings to life Gilded Age New York, and it was interesting to get a glimpse into early Halloween dress parties and seances.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.
