On the hottest day of the year in San Francisco in 1959, Private
Detectives Sam and Amelia Slater are contemplating fleeing the city for
their Stinson Beach house. However, when Sam decides to take a cable car
ride to run some errands on the lazy summer day, he’s suddenly thrust
into the spotlight when he rescues a woman who fell onto the busy
street. Sam pulls the mysterious red haired woman out of the path of an
oncoming cable car in the nick of time. The entire incident is captured
by a newspaper photographer who splashes Sam’s heroics all over the
front page. Sam is troubled not only by his new status as a city hero,
but by the rescued woman’s plea for help. She whispers to Sam that she
didn’t fall from the cable car but was pushed. She is frightened and
disappears into the crowd before Sam can get more details. A San
Francisco newspaper launches a campaign to find the mystery woman and
Sam hopes to cross paths with her again.Author: Greg Messel

REVIEW
Husband and wife team of private detectives, Sam and Amelia Slater are craving leaving the city of San Francisco for their Stinson Beach beach house. Then a ride on a cable car changes all of this. Sam ends up saving a woman after she claims she was pushed off the cable car.I was kept interested with all the suspense and sometimes twists and turns as the reader turns the pages. The author give us a fast paced read that you won't get bored with reading. Mr. Messel gives the reader some historic information that is entwined in the book. Also in the book from the 1950's are pictures in each chapter. Very interesting as you turn the pages. Will the woman on the cable car reappear? Will she be found and will her would be killer be found? Ride the cable car with Sam and the unknown woman. Your heart will start beating hard as she is pushed? off the car. Sam is used to being in the spotlight but this is different. A simple cable car ride to get a haircut and now it's a possible murder case.
would give this book 5 STARS.
