* "This supernatural noir thriller is serving up the very best the genre has to offer: unsavory characters, dark humor, sordid secrets, and an intrepid femme fatale anti-heroine who charms as a red-headed, murderous flapper version of Legally Blonde’s Elle Woods. . . . The historical world-building is immersive, with the slang-filled narration and dialogue being a highlight. . . . The gripping plot escalates with the thrills, culminating in a violent whirlwind of a happy ending."—The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, Starred Review
"An effervescent champagne cocktail of a novel that packs a delightful punch."—Booklist
"Noir turned merrily upside down."—Kirkus Reviews
"An interesting blend of historical fiction, crime drama, and fantasy, steeped in danger and scheming."—School Library Journal
"Kulper (the Salt & Storm series) delivers a glitzy, adrenaline-fueled crime novel brimming with formidable women."—Publishers Weekly
