"Excitement ensues when gangsters enter the melee in this often funny and clever novel taking place in 1923. It's a thrill to participate in rowdy action. Thwarted romance and casual flirting add their own brand of interest to the drama." -- RT Book Reviews (4 stars) "Chance strikes the perfect tongue-in-cheek tone for this frolic through Prohibition-era society.Berta's quiet common sense offers a foil for the often hapless Lola, and subplots involving dashing private detective Ralph Oliver and Sudley should satisfy readers who enjoy romance with their mystery." -- Publishers Weekly "[An]entertainingly madcap series." -- Booklist "A romp through New York society, coastal estates, yachts, Yankee Stadium, and Coney Island, mostly in Lola's red and white Duesenberg, her Pomeranian, Cedric, in tow. This second in the series will have readers cheering as Lola and Berta triumph after being rebuffed, tricked, and dismissed by the men who hold the keys to murder.
