Click Here For Katy's Next Mystery

A Fugue In Hell's Kitchen is the next Katy Green mystery in the series, and will be published in February 2004 by Perseverance Press, the publisher of Too Dead To Swing.

In Too Dead To Swing, band agent Manny Blunt tells Katy that he has checked up on her background, and considers her trustworthy, because the previous year she helped a friend of hers out of a jam.   A Fugue In Hell's Kitchen is the story of that adventure.

It's 1939, and Katy has returned to New York from a strenuous year playing swing on the road, seeking quiet comfort in the traditionally subdued, formal, and insular world of classical music. But that world – like the world at large – is no longer a restful place.

Katy's friend, Amalia Chen, is teaching at the famous Meyers Conservatory of Music, in Hell's Kitchen – New York's toughest neighborhood, where even the police go two-by-two.  But Katy's search for a stolen music manuscript, composed by the infamous virtuoso Paganini, leads her into strange and dangerous places, both physically – all over Manhattan – and mentally, as she uncovers a shadowy realm of mayhem and madness beneath the music.
