1886 TIES THAT BIND:A STORY OF POLITICS, GRAFT AND GREED BY A.E. WASSERMAN is historical fiction at its best. Lord Langsford, wealthy & newly widowed travels with his friend and stableman Pelham is in California when he quite literally runs into Sally Baxter, who is trying to find the murderer of her older brother while he was on a train ride . Sally is a stubborn woman in a mans world who will not be told what to do nor will she stop pestering the upper echelons of the railroad. Langford takes up her fight and with her they turn 1886 California up over end to find the killer and fight the ever present greed and graft and political shenanigans. These are two very stubborn people who will stop at nothing to get answers.
The story is a fast read but the details of 1886 makes the reader feel like they are actually there living the story . To me that is the sign of a great read, a book that lets you live the story, be right there with the characters!
I recieved this book free from goodreads in exchange for an honest review !
