This fabulous novel is set in and around Riverview Amusement park in Chicago in 1915. The protagonist is Pin, a 14 year old girl disguised as a boy who runs drugs for Max, one of the men working there. She sees a young girl go into a ride with a man, but not come out at the end. Pin later discovers her body. A serial killer, murderer of pre-teen girls, is on the loose. Because she is a constant visitor to all the corners of the park, she sees, hears, and eventually, figures out who the killer is. Pin reverts to Viv, gets an ally, and saves the day. This is highly recommended.
