The Jade TigerThe Jade Tiger by E.W. Cooper
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

1928 New York. Penelope Harris and her family have left Shanghai after her husband, Kinkaid Ambrose, was killed and she settled all his debts. In New York she meets the ex-lover, Renee Strong, of her husband who is now involved with Penelope's cousin, the supposedly rich Charles Staughton. But when Renee is found murdered, suspects abound, all with secrets to keep hidden, and how many have been blackmailed by Renee. Lt Nathan Blake and Patrolman James McCain investigate.
An enjoyable cosy historical mystery though I admit I didn't take to many of the characters.
An ARC was provided by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
