Everybody Two-Step (Book 6)

 



Everybody's two-stepping. They're dancing to Jazz, the new music performed so well at Gans Goldfield, the first "black and tan" club in Maryland, where the races can mix. Politicians are two-stepping, making money hand over fist, and spreading it around amongst their constituents. The cops are two-stepping, too, trying to catch up with the usual suspects, and to prosecute crooked politicians.

The women who own 
Zofia's Cakes and Tarts are doing their own version of the two-step, when the Archdiocese demands they give up their bakery so a church may be built on its location.

The fledgling Bureau of Investigation does it's best, with their limited power and resources, to investigate the ongoing criminal activities in the city and the state.


 Everybody Two-Step


Review for Everybody Two-Step:


What amazes me the most is how in each succeeding book the more things change the more they stay grounded in what needs to be done and the people that live in each book. This one, I got reintroduced to characters that were in previous books. Some that I am extremely fond of and glad to see their name and where they are in their lives and some that I am not fond of at all and awful glad to see they finally get their comeuppance from a two bit crook that got away with stuff for too long to a snooty old lady that hopefully learned her lesson. Can not wait for the next book to come out.
