decaf1 's review for:

Shrines of Gaiety by Kate Atkinson
4.0

A moderately paced and richly layered novel with an ensemble cast of characters all grounded by the key protagonists, Nellie Coker, Chief Inspector Frobisher, Gwendolen Kelling set in 1926 Soho.

Mystery, murder and intrigue threaded throughout. The author does a good job of keeping the mystery alive and Ms Kelling in the "pink".
