Once again, Kate Atkinson has produced a web of characters that engage and intrigue the reader, making the story a pleasure to read.

As always, there are numerous characters in the story with Nellie Coker and her Soho club empire at the centre of everything.
A brilliant story of gangsters, dancing girls, ambition and betrayal.
