During New York’s 1909 Hudson–Fulton Celebration, Sid and Gus hire Molly to find a brilliant Vassar-trained scientist who failed to arrive for the festivities. The missing woman’s husband claims to know nothing, while Daniel asks Molly to discover what Sid, Gus and their former classmates are secretly planning for the public parades.
Molly searches crowded exhibitions and political gatherings as her loyalty to her friends conflicts with Daniel’s investigation. When a parade turns deadly, she must connect the disappearance, the women’s hidden purpose and the killing before the celebration provides cover for another crime.
