A curious lack of corpses. A slew of snobbish suspects. Can this sightless amateur sleuth pinpoint a killer? Dallas, TX, 1930. Daiyu Wu refuses to be lessened by her blindness. Navigating the world with help from her faithful companions, the young Chinese adventuress celebrates life with a strong thirst for knowledge. So when she smells burned garlic in a customer's garment, the clever laundress runs an experiment that reveals the dress was imbued with arsenic. Determined to provide the unaware authorities with a clue in the murder case, Daiyu vows to chase down the garment's mysterious origins even though there have been no reports of a body. But as the links lead the immigrant girl higher into Texas's social echelons, she clashes with bigotry, short-sightedness, and a web of lies hamstringing her ability to investigate. Can she find fresh evidence before she's hung out to dry? Black Jade is the playful first book in the Daiyu Wu Mysteries cozy historical series. If you like witty heroines, clever twists, and feisty canines, then you'll love Gloria Oliver's period puzzle.
