Description:

"Halfway around the world, war has begun, but for Dori Lennox, a newly minted private eye on her first tail, danger is more immediate. The dark streets of Kansas City in 1939 offer Dorie swing music, fast cars, gangsters, and the chance to forget about the Depression and her own murky past. But first she must conquer her fears and save a woman on a bridge high above the muddy Missouri. When the woman takes a dive, Dorie is thrown into a quickly unraveling scam that offers salvation to few and misery to plenty in the high-stakes world of machine politics and desperation deals."--Cover.
