Description

Ambitious advice columnist Ginny Dugan knows she's capable of more than solving other people's beauty problems, but her bosses at the newspaper don't believe she has what it takes to solve crimes. When she witnesses the kidnapping of a famous singer at Harlem's hottest speakeasy, nobody takes her seriously, but Ginny knows what she saw--and what she saw haunts her.

Guilt-ridden over her failure to stop the kidnappers and hard-pressed for cash to finally move out of her uptight showgirl sister's apartment, Ginny resolves to chase down the truth that will clear her conscience and maybe win her a promotion in the process. She manipulates the brooding detective on the case into a reluctant partnership and, together, they uncover a sinister plot that pulls them into the dazzling yet dangerous world of the Ziegfeld Follies. Meanwhile, Ginny grapples with a secret of her own--she's fallen for Gloria Gardner, the star of the show. In the Roaring Twenties, their love isn't just scandalous; it's illegal.

But when a brutal murder strikes someone close to her, Ginny realizes the stakes are higher than she ever imagined. This glamorous world has a deadly edge, and Ginny must shatter her every illusion to catch the shadowy killer before they strike again.
