Publisher's Summary:
Henrietta Von Harmon works as a 26 girl at a corner bar on Chicago's northwest side. It's 1935, but things still aren't looking up since the big crash and her father's subsequent suicide, leaving Henrietta to care for her antagonistic mother and younger siblings. Henrietta is eventually persuaded to take a job as a taxi dancer at a local dance hall - and just when she's beginning to enjoy herself, the floor matron turns up dead.
When aloof Inspector Clive Howard appears on the scene, Henrietta agrees to go undercover for him - and is plunged into Chicago's grittier underworld. Meanwhile, she's still busy playing mother hen to her younger siblings, as well as to pesky neighborhood boy Stanley, who believes himself in love with her and keeps popping up in the most unlikely places, determined to keep Henrietta safe - even from the Inspector, if need be. Despite his efforts, however, and his penchant for messing up the Inspector's investigation, the lovely Henrietta and the impenetrable Inspector find themselves drawn to each other in most unsuitable ways.

Excellent historical mystery
Loved getting to know Henrietta and Inspector Howard. Intriguing mystery and many complex and interesting characters which made for an excellent historical listen that was hard to put down. The narrator did an amazing job of bringing the characters and story to life. I really enjoyed this book and cant wait to see where this series goes next! I received a free review copy of this audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.
Love it!!!
The first thing that attracted my to this book is the cover and then I read the description and I thought I have to get my hands on it.
The author surprised me because I thought I knew what to expect, but I didn't. I really liked Henrietta, she is innocent and naive but this is due to the era and her age. If this was written in our timeline then I would not have believed it but because it is in another time period it is more realistic. As she started to understand things that is happening around her the book gets a bit more darker and her innocence is chipped away.
I would recommend this book and I am looking forward to the next book.
There is no profanity, but it does have some violence. The story has no sex scenes but there is an attempted rape and talk about sexual orinatation, kissing (females:female and female:male), and touching.

Nostalgic and Sweet
I really enjoyed listening to this book. To me it felt like A Tree Grows in Brooklyn meets a risqué Nancy Drew. The plot was intriguing and the characters very good. I loved the innocence of Henrietta, it was very endearing. I cant wait to read A Ring of Truth. Although I wish it was on Audible too.
Great!
Fantastic mystery with great narration! I really enjoyed this story!
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. The fact that I was gifted this book had no influence over my opinion of it
A really good read
I think that the research behind the story is exceptional, the characters are very well drawn (even the truly irritating), and the plot is different from the ordinary even though it lacked the urgency often found in many mysteries.
