About this audiobook
Chicago, 1922. When fallen aristocrat Kit Ashworth answers a classified ad for a secretary position, she discovers her new boss is Patrick O'Malley—a guilt-ridden ex-cop turned private detective who drinks too much and needs her help more than he knows.
Their first case seems simple: prove a wealthy businessman was murdered, not suicide. But in Prohibition-era Chicago, nothing is simple. Between corrupt police, dangerous bootleggers, and Kit's own desperate need to prove herself, solving the case means Kit must hide her brilliant detective skills behind a secretary's facade while Paddy takes public credit.
As cigarette smoke fills their shabby office and jazz drifts up from the speakeasy below, an unlikely partnership forms. Kit has the brains, Paddy has the connections, and together they might just survive the most corrupt city in America—if their secrets don't kill them first.
