Like A Shadow

Here’s Charlene’s latest book.

Like A Shadow

In an era when women were expected to remain silent and unseen, Kate Warne dared to pursue the impossible, becoming America’s first female detective. With remarkable intelligence, unwavering determination, and a gift for blending into the background, she helped solve major criminal cases, infiltrated dangerous circles, and played a vital role in protecting President-elect Abraham Lincoln from an assassination plot.

As she builds the Pinkerton Female Detective Bureau and trains a new generation of women operatives, Kate’s courage and innovation forever change the course of detective work. But behind her extraordinary achievements lies a story of sacrifice, perseverance, and a life devoted to serving others.

Inspired by true events in the 1850’s, Like a Shadow is a compelling work of historical fiction celebrating the remarkable woman whose legacy opened doors for generations to come.

Some heroes seek the spotlight. Others change history from the shadows.
