Wow, this book looks very interesting. It was very fresh and unique to combine so many famous personalities in a book. I would love to get lost in time with this book. Thank you for your review.

Thank you for the great review. Based on the title, I was not sure if I wanted to read this book. After reading your review and the first chapter, I am going to put it on my want to read list.

I love great reviews like the because then I know what to expect out of the book and if I'm going to like the book & want to read it. This sounds for an interesting read, and glad the events happening in the book are factual and with facts because some historic reads I've read tell of an event in a fictional way and inaccurate and threw me off the book to where sometimes I stopped reading. So I'm glad the author has talked about the events as they truly happened and didn't turn a bad event in to a good one with a happy ending when you know the truth and it was really a bloody ending. I can't wait to read this book! Putting it on the list of must reads!

This sounds like a very interesting book and Abby is nothing short of a spectacular character. This crime thriller will be one that keeps the reader invested and I am sure it will make a lot of people wonder what it was really like in the 1920s. Great review.

I am definitely going to have to check out this book. I read the overview Amazon had, and now having read this review of this book I have to read it. It is officially on my shelf! I love suspense and the fact they are still working to have normal lives amidst the chaos. Thank you!

This book seems like a creative way to form a plot around historical events. One could learn a bit about the St. Valentine Day massacre, Al Capone Trials, Stock Market Crash, and about Hitler all through the journey of Abby and her friends. It is good to hear that all the loose ends were tied up nicely at the end. I enjoyed your review.

Sounds like a fascinating thriller, and I like the historical aspect of it when seems to span a number of events over many years. It would be interesting to see how the author manages to follow all these characters, incorporate all these elements and tie them all together. Thanks for the review and the intriguing look into this novel.

Sounds like an exciting read! Thank you for mentioning the possible sensitive material. Though I'm not terribly affected by the subject matter, that's really helpful for readers who are! I can't wait to finish it!

I occasionally enjoy historical fiction but not when it's a war-related story as is the case here. Even though the plot seems kind of interesting, I think I'll pass on this one. Nice review though.

A very interesting turn of events seem to be contained within the covers of this book.
