Heaven Will Protest the Working Girl is the third book in the Julia Nye historical mystery series.
In 1910, sexual slavery traps immigrant women and country women new to the cities-and now women working in factories.
In 1910, Julia Nye's job is supposed to be typing for the St. Louis Police Department. But when two factory workers die after being confined in brothels, the police realize that a slaver may have moved from Chicago to St. Louis to escape a sweep of the sex trade in the Windy City. And the most effective way to bust the operation is to ask Julia to work in a shirtwaist factory. And watch.
Working in the factory-and living with two police officers who are working the ruse as well-will strain Julia's romance with her beau, a reporter for a major St. Louis newspaper. William McConnell leaves for Chicago to investigate the factory owner's background and to rethink his difficult relationship with Julia. Fellow reporter Carl Schroeder follows, and the two men discover more than background. They stir up danger for both William and Julia. Assassins and the slaver's interest in his new employee lead William and Julia to fight not only for the relationship but also for their lives.
