Liberty Falling

Description

When an unidentified child falls to her death from the Statue of Liberty, the tragedy ripples outward into a web of suspicion and violence that pulls Anna Pigeon back to New York City. As her sister Molly fights for her life in the ICU, Anna must navigate a city of shifting loyalties—where a sudden death among the suspects, an attack on Anna, and a brutal murder on Ellis Island all point to something far more sinister than a single accident. With her instincts sharpened by experience and her determination tested at every turn, Anna follows clues through iconic landmarks and hidden histories, uncovering the motives that connect past and present. Blending suspenseful mystery plotting with Nevada Barr’s signature sense of place, the novel explores family devotion, moral courage, and the unsettling ways the past can surface in public spaces.
