Shrines of Gaiety--#52 finished

Based in 1920s London a family with the mother as the strong leader runs a series of late night clubs.  London after the war is a place that people want to move to and stay out late and drink and dance.  A corrupt cop, a back from nowhere criminal, some young girls and a clean up stuff cop get involved with the daughters and sons of this family.  I had read a book by author years and years ago about a modern detective and remembering enjoying it and have a few of her other books as well.  This one took a long time to get going and were a bunch of characters introduced that took a while for them to come back around.  Following along and slow story just made this one a hard one for me to enjoy.  Just an okay read for me.

There are 17 WL for this book on PBS so will probably post & send off at some point.
