Death Is Disposable

Anna Winthrop’s desire to solve crimes leads her to secret places in Manhattan.

*** 3 stars “Clever and original, Death is Disposable has a unique protagonist — Anna Winthrop, heiress and Sanitation Supervisor, for Manhattan's District 13. Marshall's plot is believable and his voice is definitely that of New York. Believe me — I live here!” — Leslie,

When New York City Department of Sanitation garage supervisor Anna Winthrop finds a homeless man with his throat slit behind her apartment building, she begins to investigate. Her search takes her from elegant art galleries in the Upper East Side to the City’s secret homeless camps tucked away, and its network of abandoned subway tunnels under Grand Central Station.

Anna knew the homeless man and is surprised to find out that more than a few people wanted him dead. With the help of her NYPD cop boyfriend, Santos Reyes, Anna uncovers the truth but not before putting herself in grave danger, as the ruthless killer prepares to make her his next victim.
