Summary
Reach of Destiny - By FallenBelle and RuthieGreen
A politician, a reporter and a coroner all walk into a bar and witness an awful death…
In Roaring Twenties Toronto, prohibition is in full swing but someone has taken to poisoning bootleg booze. The new Mayor’s friend is dead in a posh speakeasy and Detective William Murdoch, a war veteran and nearly broken man, is charged with solving the high-profile crimes without getting him or his boss fired in the process. To do that he has to work with the newly-minted City Coroner, Dr. Julia Ogden, who isn't sure she wants the job, but has her own ideas about conducting a proper police inquiry. Meanwhile, the bodies are piling up, and love, death, betrayal and secrets beleaguer William and Julia, as they navigate corruption, their working relationship, and a killing spree (or two.)
