Summary:
Supposing you were a modern-day woman who had the opportunity to travel back in time. Sarah Trenton, a strong-willed graduate student in the first decade of the Woman's Liberation movement travels to 1845 Peekskill, New York to research her dissertation. But she soon finds herself challenged to survive at a time when a woman's choices and earning potential are limited. Can she overcome financial reverses, the advances of Squire Van Zandt (a man with "old fashioned" ideas), Captain Jason Bridges (an elusive romantic figure), and submit to all of 1845 America's rules and regulations and keep herself out of the alms house? It proves more difficult than she ever would have imagined.

Summary:
Ellen Rasmussen, the new assistant curator at the Englewood Museum of American Art in Denver, Colorado, is thrilled to be working at an institution backed by her hero, the industrialist and art collector, Maximilian Rizzotti. The only problem is that her predecessor was poisoned, and the police have not been able to solve his murder. Ellen soon finds herself caught up in the city's art politics and racing against time to discover the killer before she herself succumbs to a fatal "accident."
