Why read it?
1 author picked Edwin of the Iron Shoes as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
In many ways, Marcia Mueller started it all by introducing readers to Sharon McCone, a modern-day woman sleuth and staff investigator for All Souls Legal Cooperative. In Edwin of the Iron Shoes, she works to solve the murder of antiques dealer Joan Albritton. Her investigation takes Sharon from the antiques and curios shops of San Francisco’s Salem Street to a museum frequented by the city’s social elite.

From M. Lee's list on humor, pathos, and a loveable woman sleuth.
