The bulk of this book is set in NYC in 1938, an important year in the life of our main character Katey Kontent, a working girl of great intelligence and wit. She an her good buddy Eve are out on the town when they meet a successful banker Tinker Grey. Although he and Katey seem to have an attraction, an accident gets in the way of their romance and the story takes several twists that we don't expect. Katey still manages to look good and do good work during the time she is waiting for the issues with Tinker to resolve themselves. Later when they have a chance, she finds out something even more disturbing. This description seems stilted but giving any details away will make the reading of this less fun. I really enjoyed the book and also find it intriguing that it is written by a man but has such strong women characters. More details that I liked - Katey is a reader and there is a George Washington reference (I'm still obsessing about Washington).
