  Darkness and the Devil Behind Me by Persia Walker will capture your attention from the first page. Esther Todd, a talented and aspiring pianist, disappears into thin air on a cold December night. The investigation of her disappearance stalls after several dead ends. Her sister, Ruth, is determined to find out what happened to her sister. Ruth appeals to Lanie Price, the crime reporter turned society columnist who initially covered Esther’s story. Frustrated with the superficial lives of the elite that she covers in her column, Lanie cautiously agrees to help Ruth uncover the truth. Unfortunately, there are folks who would rather leave the past in the past and are willing to do anything, including murder, to make sure that happens.
  
  Persia Walker presents a page-turning thriller infused with pockets of romance. Set in Harlem, New York, Walker depicts an often unseen version of life during the Harlem Renaissance and Prohibition. Readers might be a bit overwhelmed with details and distracted by minor grammatical errors at times but they will not be disappointed with this engaging and entertaining story.
