A very interesting mystery set in the 1920s and jazz era. The background definitely kept your interest! All about Eve, a black pianist in Chicago. Trying to figure out who killed Lena (a white woman's brother) while navigating kn this world.

The America at the times of Prohibition and of segregation, but also America at the time of Jazz and Ragtime, the one that, between a bullet and the other, gave us immortal music pieces. And immortal is the star of this novel, fast paced as a piece of Scott Joplin, a black woman able to play with the same force, the same speed and the same rhythm of a man, to be truly the leader of a band, but also intelligent, ready and able to take control of her own destiny.
Thank Noontime Books and Netgalley for giving me a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
