(1) Invisible City and (2) Conviction, both by Julia Dahl, are some of the most vivid, sensory and cultural depictions of NYC I have read in years. They’re mysteries. The young 20s female main character didn’t grow up in the city but moved there to work as a reporter. Additional bonus is her exploration of the little-known ultra-Orthodox Jewish community. Very well written!
