Midnight

Midnight

Octavus Roy Cohen

A woman vanishes into a December night. A dead man takes her place. This is the riddle that confronts investigators in Cohen's gripping 1919 mystery, where nothing is as it appears and every shadow hides a secret. The city sleeps beneath sleet and silence while a taxicab carries its impossible cargo through empty streets, the trail growing colder with each passing hour. A society man lies crumpled in the backseat, his own suitcase beside him, while the woman who summoned the cab has dissolved into the darkness. But Cohen is just beginning to unravel his puzzle. What begins as a missing woman becomes a labyrinth of deception, where the boundaries between victim and villain blur and the truth proves more dangerous than the crime itself.
