Anyone love mysteries set in the 1950's?I can't recommend @playwrightsteve.bsky.social Stephen Spotswood's series enough. Pentacost and Parker, two detective gals who solve murders; one has serious intution and MS, the other worked in the circus and is a crack shot. And lots of diverse relationships
