The Bronze Hand by Anna Katharine Green audiobook.

Genre: mystery

In anxious pre-Civil War Baltimore, young Abbott has time on his hands and an obsession he cannot explain: the striking, secretive woman who lodges in the room below his. When a thief snatches a ring from her hand as she closes her shutters, she turns to Abbott instead of the police, insisting the stolen trinket is far more dangerous than it looks. Her name is Miss Calhoun, and she binds him to silence before sending him into a shabby office building to keep watch over a locked box in Dr. Merriam's rooms. Inside lies the novel's unsettling emblem: a bronze hand displayed on a cushion, its fingers meant to bear rings of a peculiar make. If a certain ring is placed on a certain finger, Miss Calhoun fears an irreversible verdict will be set in motion. As Abbott navigates suspicious onlookers, cryptic warnings, and a shadowy network that seems to punish betrayal with death, his gallant impulse hardens into a moral test: how far can he go to help a woman in peril without becoming an instrument of the very evil he is trying to stop? citeturn2view0turn3view1

That Affair Next Door by Anna Katharine Green audiobook.

Genre: mystery

In a quiet New York neighborhood of well-kept brownstones and closely watched manners, a sudden gunshot shatters the calm and a young woman is found dead behind a locked door. With the police baffled by a case that seems to point everywhere and nowhere at once, the investigation turns to the people who knew the household best - the neighbors who heard fragments of voices through walls, noticed who came and went, and carried private grudges behind polite smiles. Enter Amelia Butterworth, an independent, sharp-eyed society woman whose sense of order is matched only by her curiosity. Refusing to be dismissed as an idle onlooker, Amelia begins collecting observations the professionals overlook, comparing alibis, testing assumptions, and pushing past the limits placed on her as a woman of her time. As suspicion spreads along the row and every parlor conversation becomes a clue, Amelia finds herself in a contest of wits with hidden motives, class expectations, and the dangerous consequences of prying into other people's secrets. Part mystery puzzle and part social portrait, the story builds through meticulous detail toward a truth that will not stay safely behind closed doors.

The Chief Legatee by Anna Katharine Green audiobook.

Genre: mystery

On the very day of her brilliant New York wedding, Georgian Hazen begins to act like a woman under sentence. Within hours of registering at a hotel with her new husband, Roger J. Ransom, the bride vanishes, leaving behind only bewildering clues and a reputation that society is eager to shred. Roger follows the trail to the rain-soaked countryside of Georgian's childhood, where her fierce, half-wild sister Anitra still haunts every memory - and where the roar of a nearby waterfall seems to call the desperate toward darkness. As a quiet investigation hardens into a race against scandal and time, lawyer Harper and a seasoned detective are drawn into a puzzle of locked doors, mistaken identities, and a past Georgian tried to bury. Then comes the shock that turns grief into suspicion: Georgian's will names an unknown man, Josiah Auchincloss, as chief legatee to the greater part of her fortune, while those closest to her are left with questions instead of comfort. In Anna Katharine Green's hands, love, money, and family secrets collide, and every new fact threatens to overturn what Roger believes he knows about the woman he married.
