A socialite living in late-1930s New York City disappears without a trace in Unseasonably Cold, Amy Ephron's elegant, melancholy noir of secrets, misapprehensions, and deceptions.
Replete with beautifully observed period detail and sharply drawn characters, Unseasonably Cold is classic storytelling, a mystery crafted with an artist's eye. Rendered in Ephron's lovely, austere literary prose, it is utterly worthy of the era it depicts, when the polite mask of high society’s mannered calm disguised the turbulence just beneath; a mirror for the terrible events swirling in Europe at the lead-up to the Second World War.
