Description

Frog Music is a gripping novel by Emma Donoghue, set against the backdrop of San Francisco's record-breaking heatwave and smallpox epidemic in 1876. A young woman named Jenny Bonnet is shot dead through the window of a railroad saloon, leaving her friend Blanche Beunon to unravel the mystery. As Blanche delves deeper into the case, she uncovers a complex web of secrets and lies among San Francisco's bohemian community, including free-love advocates, desperate paupers, and arrogant millionaires. The story is one of love, bloodshed, and survival, set against the vibrant but treacherous landscape of 19th-century America. With its thrilling and cinematic style, Frog Music brings to life a long-forgotten crime, weaving together songs that migrated across the world with a tale of passion and violence among lowlifes.
