About this audiobook
Bainbridge Island, 1889. Night watchman Silas Croy walks the lumber mill and the managers' cottages on a round timed to the mill whistle. His log is the only record of who is where after dark.
At 3:10 a.m., the owner's son is found shot on the mill catwalk. Every man is accounted for—except Silas, who was at the far end of the pier.
When Seattle detective Verity Locke arrives, she finds two entries in Silas's log written in a hand that isn't his. The forgery points at the mill's bookkeeper, an embezzled payroll, and a ledger hidden where no watchman would look. Silas has one defense: he can walk his round again, whistle by whistle, from memory.
A Victorian night-watch mystery for readers who keep their own logs.
