[#110 in Historical Fiction! 03/03/2017] Beautiful girls in exquisite dresses. Handsome men with dishonorable intentions. Add in jazz and booze and you have the high society of Chicago 1922. With white lies and dark secrets Chicago's wealthiest families don't only bounce back and forth between the city and their country estates, they also alternate with ease between the extended pinkie tea parties during the day and scandalous speakeasies at night.
Clara and Olivia Vandercroft are at the top of the social scene... or so it seems. When they find out that their position may not be so secure , suddenly everyone is against them to threaten their future - including Clara's social-climbing best friend, Virginia, who is tired of living in her shadow. When Virginia's envy boils over from being thwarted once again by the Vandercroft sisters, no one is safe.
It's the roaring twenties, when morality is questioned, dark secrets prevail, and anything goes.
