Shrines Of Gaiet By Kate Atkinson

Kate Atkinson's Shrines of Gaiety

Kate Atkinson's Shrines of Gaiety is a beautiful historical tale set in the heart of 1920s London, when jazz, gin, and corruption make for a lively nightlife. Nellie Coker is the ambitious matriarch of a nightclub empire. She is fiercely motivated to protect her family's legacy while dealing with competing criminals, undercover agents, and demons from her past.

Atkinson crafts a rich picture of a society chasing pleasure while teetering on the edge of anarchy with humor, tension, and literary style. A compelling story of ambition, power, and survival.
