After a fire decimated a swathe of lower Manhattan, and following years of passionate political dispute, New York City at long last formed an official Police Department. That same summer, the great potato famine hit Ireland. These events would change the city of New York for ever. Timothy Wilde hadn't wanted to be a copper star.

But his fight for justice could cost him the woman he loves, his brother and ultimately his life...

I read the book in one sitting. I love period novels and this one gave me a new perspective of early New York.
