Author Caroline Lawrence returns to the Wild West with another action-packed mystery starring Master-of-Disguise, P.K. Pinkerton.
After vanquishing three notorious Desperados, twelve-year-old P.K. Pinkerton opens a private-eye business in Virginia City. P.K.'s skills are quickly put to the test: When a maid named Martha witnesses a murder, she hires the young detective to track the killer before he finds her too.
P.K. enlists a trusted ally, Poker Face Jace, to help crack the case—but collecting clues and keeping Martha safe will not be easy. Cunning liars, rogue gunslingers and deadly foes lurk at every turn, and time is running out to bring the murderer to justice.
Sharp, thrilling and vividly imagined, P.K. Pinkerton's second action-packed adventure will keep your heart racing through to the very end.

      Lawrence returns to the Wild West for Pinkerton's second adventure. In spite of several foibles and eccentricities, newly orphaned 12-year-old PK has opened a detective agency, confident that clients will soon be clamoring for their cases to be solved. But there's also a thorn in her side: People are confounding and impossible to read. Today, we call it Asperger's, but back in the Wild West it had no name. T. Sands narrates PK's story with a precise delivery that includes meticulous attention to punctuation, vocabulary, and detail. Sands draws in the listener, maintaining a careful balance between PK's dedication to solving her case and her offbeat comic relief. Listeners will admire PK's confidence and spunk even as they chuckle at the obvious missed clues. N.E.M. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award
