An engaging, nostalgic read brimming with tragedy, romance and glamour
Deliciously stylish. Callahan suavely combines literary finesse and pulp fiction to create a fast-moving, heartwrenching tale of romance and tragedy in a time of tyrannically sexist social conventions.
Callahan has managed to capture a thrilling side of vintage New York that still speaks to us today
A light and frothy anecdote to Mad Men withdrawal symptoms
This tale of big dreams, drop-dead glamour and fragile hearts will have you turning pages late into the night... Suspenseful, sharp and romantic, I loved every minute of it.
A wonderful champagne bubble of a book - glamorous, aspirational, and relatable! The fifties never seemed so fun! Wicked, naughty and clever.
