What is A Field of Darkness (Madeline Dare, Book 1) (A Madeline Dare Novel (1)) about?

<p><P>Madeline Dare would be the first to tell you her money is so old there's none left. A former socialite from an aristocratic family in decline, Maddie is a tough-talking, would-be journalist exiled to the rust belt of upstate New York. Her prospects for changing her dreary lifestyle seem dim&#151;until a set of dog tags found at a decades-old murder site is linked to her family. Shocked into action, Maddie embarks on a search that takes her from the derelict smokestacks of Syracuse to the posh mansions of Long Island's Gold Coast. But instead of the warm refuge of home, this prodigal daughter soon uncovers dark, sinister secrets that will violently challenge everything she believes in and holds dear.</p><h3>The New York Times - Marilyn Stasio</h3><p>The mystery component is slender and too attenuated to be suspenseful, but the clipped accents of Madeline's sardonic voice keep calling us back to be regaled by the pomps and cruelties of "those smug and didactic and murderous City-on-a-Hill prigs" and help her mourn "the traditions of my people, my tribe, a beauty that is as lost as the passenger pigeon."</p>
