Henrietta Von Harmon works as a 26 girl at a corner bar on Chicago's northwest side. It's 1935, but things still aren't looking up since the big crash and her father's subsequent suicide, leaving Henrietta to care for her antagonistic mother and younger siblings. Henrietta is eventually persuaded to take a job as a taxi dancer at a local dance hall - and just when she's beginning to enjoy herself, the floor matron turns up dead. When aloof Inspector Clive Howard appears on the scene, Henrietta agrees to go undercover for him-and is plunged into Chicago's grittier underworld. Meanwhile, she's still busy playing mother hen to her younger siblings, as well as to pesky neighborhood boy Stanley, who believes himself in love with her and keeps popping up in the most unlikely places, determined to keep Henrietta safe - even from the Inspector, if need be. Despite his efforts, however, and his penchant for messing up the Inspector's investigation, the lovely Henrietta and the impenetrable Inspector find themselves drawn to each other in most unsuitable ways.

Publisher's Summary
A spiritualist, an insane asylum, a lost little girl...
When Clive, anxious to distract a depressed Henrietta, begs Sergeant Frank Davis for a case, he is assigned to investigating a seemingly boring affair: a spiritualist woman operating in an abandoned schoolhouse on the edge of town who is suspected of robbing people of their valuables.
What begins as an open-and-shut case becomes more complicated, however, when Henrietta, much to Clive’s dismay, begins to believe the spiritualist's strange ramblings.
Meanwhile, Elsie implores Clive and Henrietta to help her and the object of her budding love Gunther locate the whereabouts of one Liesel Klinkhammer, the German woman Gunther has traveled to America to find and the mother of the little girl Anna, whom he has brought along with him.
The search leads them to Dunning Asylum, where they discover some terrible truths about Liesel. When the child Anna is herself mistakenly admitted to the asylum after an epileptic fit, Clive and Henrietta return to Dunning to retrieve her. This time, however, Henrietta begins to suspect that something darker may be happening. When Clive doesn’t believe her, she decides to take matters into her own hands...with horrifying results.

The girl, the spiritualist, and the asylum
A Child Lost is the fifth book in the great Henrietta and Inspector Howard series of beautifully written historical romance novels from best-selling and award-winning author Michelle Cox, brought to life once again by the talented voiceover artist and narrator Jayne Entwistle.
In A Child Lost, Inspector Clive Howard provides his young wife, Henrietta, with a strange case to investigate, hoping to distract her from what it’s transforming into a sort of depression. Henrietta, Clive and Hen’s sister, Elsie, are quickly drawn into the mysteries surrounding a lost girl, and an ominous asylum.
A Child Lost is a darker and more dramatic adult story set against the backdrop of mid-1930’s Chicago. Well written and expertly performed, A Child Lost is Michelle Cox at her very best. With such a dedicated narrator in Jayne Entwistle, this series becomes more entertaining, gripping and enthralling with each new release. I can’t wait to find out what comes next for our heroes…

Perfect voice for this intriguing story
As the story opens, Jayne Entwistle’s voice and restraint invite the listener to savor the story itself as a mystery reveals itself and lives begin to unfurl. The narrator’s diction is perfectly matched to the story’s, and each character’s voice brings forth both image and personality.
A lovely story, beautifully told.

What happened?
I love the book series but why the sex scenes between the married couple? Why the language between some of the men in the book? I found it unnecessary and distracting.
