(2) YA It's 1932. Kelpie is an orphan in a violent Sydney, Australia, neighborhood ruled by mob bosses--one of whom is brothel madam Gloriana Nelson. Kelpie's caught up in a murder and befriended by Gloriana's "best girl," Dymphna, who shares Kelpie's ability to speak with ghosts. Yoking paranormal thriller, roman noir, and historical fiction, Razorhurst teems with precise period details and unsavory characters.
