Poppy is determined to help, but can she find the evidence to bring the perpetrators to justice without putting her own life in danger....
What the critics say
"Manhattan, beware! Formidable reporter Poppy Danby enjoys a luxury voyage across the Atlantic. Her indefatigable and entertaining search for truth reveals the seediness and glamour of 1920s New York." (Frances Brody, author of the Kate Shackleton mysteries)
