Description
Mixing Mystery and Romance in a Fizzy 1930s Cocktail!
A desperate girl. A dead matron. A detective with secrets of his own.
It's Chicago, 1935. With her father gone and her mother paralyzed by depression, Henrietta is left to support her seven younger siblings. Her job as a "twenty-six girl" at a local tavern barely covers the bills-and the burden is beginning to take its toll.
Desperate, she reluctantly takes a new job as a taxi dancer at the shabby Promenade Ballroom. But when the floor matron is found dead, Henrietta is unwittingly pulled into a seedy murder investigation.
Enter Inspector Clive Howard: handsome, reserved, and very much off-limits.
Tasked with solving the case, Clive enlists Henrietta to go undercover at a nearby burlesque theater, where girls have begun to vanish-apparently under the direction of a notorious crime lord known as Neptune.
As their professional arrangement deepens into something more, Henrietta must decide who she can trust-and how far she's willing to go. When their elaborate sting operation goes wrong and Clive disappears, Henrietta is forced to elude Neptune's clutches on her own. Can she hold on to her virtue-as well as her heart-before it's too late?
★ "Henrietta and Clive are a sexy, endearing, and downright fun pair of sleuths." -Library Journal (starred review)
★ "Fans of spunky, historical heroines will love Henrietta Von Harmon." ―Booklist, starred review
