This is the story of two women: Alice and Ruby. Alice Lee is 18 years old from Wisconsin. She arrived in New York with $600 in her pocket. Noah, an older man, whom she had been in contact with by text gives her a place to live. Their relationship was strictly platonic. Ruby Jones is 36 years old. She flew from Melbourne, Australia to New York for a six-month sabbatical after the man she fell in love with is marrying someone else. She stumbles across the body of an unnamed young woman. The police have no idea who she is. Ruby is troubled by what she saw and believes she needs to find out more about this woman and who killed her.
The book has a steady pace, the characters are somewhat developed, and it is written in the first-person point of view. If you like murder mysteries, you may enjoy reading this one.
