Lyndsay Faye is a professional writer and actress who resides in New York with her husband .Lyndsay Faye relocated to Manhattan in the year 2005 to start working as a professional actress that is where she actually realized her days more open after the powers she had elected decided destroy her restuarant. The title of her first novel was Dust and Shadow by Dir. John H Watson is acknowledgement to the distance genius and his good-heated friend whose deeds she has loved since her childhood. The book includes myriad contemporaneous accounts of Jack the Ripper’s ghastly crimes, focusing on the great difficulty of finding a serial killer amidst the widespread critics from the public and the press at large.

Lindsay grew up in the Pacific Northwest, but later relocated to Belmont, California that is where she graduated with dual degree in English and performance from the Notre Dame de Namur University. She actually worked as one of the professional actress all over the Bay Area for a number of years, nearly she loved to wear corset, and if not in corset then at the very least heels and lined stockings. As her main roles ranged from Scrooge’s lost fiancee in A Christmas Carol to the Lavinia DuPlessy in Andrew Lippa’s world premiere of a Little Princess. Whalebone hindered her from drawing a natural breath for many years. She is a soprano lady with a high pop belt. Her performance were always reviewed well.

Lyndsay Faye and her lived in the north of Harlem with their Grendel, Prufrock and cats. During her free time at home Lyndsay could not spend it either writing or editing, she is could more often cook instead or simply taking new samples new kinds of micro brew, or at times identifying ways to uniquely mismatch the cloths. She is a great member of the ASH ,BSI and AEA associations. She is hard working on the sequel to The Gods of Gotham novel.

Faye’s much interest and love of her adopted city made her to research the genesis of the New York City Police Department, the establishment of which exactly concur with the start of the Irish Potato Famine. Her second and the third novels; Gods of Gotham and Seven for a Secret respectively follows ex-barkeeper Timothy Wilde as he goes through the rapids of his violently agitated city, his no less chaotic elder brother by the name Valentine Wilde, and the danger of learning police work in a uproar and racially divided political landscape

Six months later after the main events of The novel Gods of Gotham, where inside it we get to take part in the 1845 genesis and initial days of the New York City Police Department (NYPD), we come across young man Timothy Wilde, he is a “Copper Star” in the current police force. He is shown as an asset now,the best in solving crimes and looking for things that were missing, and has then been relieved of the role of walking a beat as the “rounder” in Ward number 6.Nevertheless, he is now a kind of special “detective” (although that same term won’t be in use for the next 5-10 years) and he mainly works on specific cases for the Chief of Police, George Washington Matsell. Tim Wilde illustrates his detective knowledge early on but the major case of the novel engulfs the very historically and accurate issue of kidnapping free blacks in the North and then selling then them back to the South as escaped slaves.

The novel Gods of Gotham, was the best novel as well, Faye was trying a little too hard to craft the perfect novel. Her main writing style is more of “literary” in that first book and she has come to understand her actors well she just lets them play on her stage. And once again, her stage is fantastic! All the design and vibrancy of the first book is here still, the sounds and smells of the large number of people-exploding New York city in the mid of19th century, the language of the streets , criminals and the corruption of the politicians all the way to Tammany Hall.

Many historical figures dominate the story and take main roles in it, among are members of New York a Committee of Vigilance, founded in the year 1835 for the purposely for the prevention of kidnapping men, women, and children to be sold into working as slaves. The fictional characters could not have more than one dimension. The author is very careful careful not to let him draw attention away from our main character, Tim. And Indeed, every aspect of interesting story telling is found here: a great and perfect setting, a smoothly moving plot (including some wicked scenes of action ),fantastic pacing, and somehow complex plot and subplots without being confused, a fascinating mystery with a number of groovy plot twists in the book, and truly interesting funny characters. And especially vital for an historical novel Lyndsay Faye gets the facts right.

Timothy Wilde character seemed much more street-smart and very competent in the novel Gods of Gotham and the love-hate relationship between Timothy and his elder brother Valentine was used a number of times here. As with The novel Gods of Gotham, I find the stiff-minded, politically shrewd Valentine with all his personal demonstration much more fascinating than the underdog brother Timothy. Timothy spends of his time too much time pining for Mercy Under hill, and the way his thinks were written continually is a great reminder to me that he was actually a male character written by a modern woman by the name Lyndsay Faye.

After the formulation of the NYPD, its most calm and very gifted officer, Timothy Wilde, thinks himself well conversant in his city’s dark practices not until until he learns of the shocking underworld of lies and corruption dominated by the “blackbirds,” who takes free Northerners of color right from their homes, assembled them as slaves, and then sell them South to toil as plantation property. The abolitionist Timothy is terrified by these merchants in human flesh. But in the year 1846, slave catching is not only just legal but it is a law enforcement. When the beautiful and astonished Lucy Adams enters into Timothy’s office to report a robbery and she is asked what was stolen, she simply replied, “My family.” Their search for her half cast sister and son plunges Timothy and his untamed brother, Valentine, into a world where police are questionable and brutal politics, and corpses only appear in the most shocking of the places. Timothy finds himself trapped between power and principles, desperate to shield his only brother and to separate the puzzle before all he cares for is lost.
