74.	*The Fifth Floor* (Michael Kelly #2) The second in the Michael Kelley series, in which the private detective’s investigation into a domestic abuse case surprisingly leads him to a political scandal involving the Great Chicago Fire. Kelley discovers that a hobbyist historian might have a first-edition history of the fire that many, most importantly Chicago’s mayor (a Richard M. Daley clone), badly want. In this fictional account, there is proof that O’Leary’s cow did not start the fire and evidence to indicate that a Daley ancestor did.	Michael Harvey Michael Harvey Link	2008
