Publisher's summary

Amid the hushed city, two hearts must navigate danger and deception, bound by a love that outshines the stars.

Katherine Schneider’s life as a dentist in 1913 New York is upended when a patient reveals details of a deadly plot while under the influence of laughing gas.

As she is plunged into danger, she seeks help from the dashing Lieutenant Jonathan Birch, a police officer she has long admired from afar.

Jonathan has harbored powerful feelings toward Katherine for years but never acted on them, knowing his dark history is something she could never abide. Now, with her safety on the line, he works alongside her through the nights as they unravel the criminal conspiracy that threatens her … even as he keeps his deepest secrets hidden at all costs.

Perfect in every way

First, I want to mention that I love the narrators voice, and I think she did a wonderful job with this story! This is the second book I’ve read by this author, and I will be reading more. The characters were so well developed, and I cared for them and everything they were going through. I loved the intrigue with trying to figure out about the bombings and I loved the romanceand I loved the history. I felt like I was there highly recommend this book.

A wonderful historical romance!

I loved it. It had mystery, romance, and a crime solving love interest. This was my first book by the author, and I’ll be coming back for more!

The ongoing incredible writing of E. Camden

The heroine was a bit “too good” but other than that, what a great story!!!! E. C. Always manages to teach about some aspect of life, like how sugar was made in this case. To me that puts her books in another category of greatness!

Excellent mystery, history, romance!

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to Elizabeth Camden’s While the City Sleeps. It takes place in 1913 New York City about a female dentist who works the night shift and a police officer who walks her home every night. The mystery and danger come alive and the slowly building romance might die before the spark can grow! I couldn’t stop listening through the whole book; the narrator is enjoyable too. The historical theme and character development were great and there was an important faith /forgiveness thread as well. Very good book!

Clean, entertaining

Overall the book was good and interesting albeit pretty predictable. The best thing about it was the romance wasn’t lewd or overly sappy.

What would you do if you were Jonathan?

Entirely changing the course of his life has not been easy for Jonathan. Can he ever let a woman into that life and share it? Katherine wants to be that woman, but accomplishing it is only possible with God helping.

Complex characters

I enjoyed the tantalizing food descriptions. The characters were rich and the plot had a lot of twists and turns,
