The Michael Cassidy series drops a sharp, morally complex detective into 1950s New York City, where the crimes he investigates are tangled up with the political anxieties of the McCarthy era. David C. Taylor uses the mystery format to explore a period in American history when fear and suspicion were as dangerous as any criminal.

The three books in the series follow Cassidy through cases that grow more personal and politically charged. The noir atmosphere is strong, and Taylor’s period detail makes the city feel like a character in its own right.
