About the Book:
Get swept away to the glamor of a 1950’s
department store where four women’s loyalties, vanity, friendship, and
detective skills are put to the test.
Audrey Penault once led a
glamorous life as a model but now works as devoted secretary to Mr.
Wynton. To her fellow employees, she is too vain and uppity.
Mary Jo Johnson, a wife and mother, longs to find her worth in the
cosmetics department, but it may take a while for the shy housewife to
discover her voice.
Vivian Sheffield owns and runs the bridal
salon within Wynton’s. She is proud of her accomplishments and won’t let
anyone take them away.
Gigi Woodard dislikes her job as
waitress in the store’s lunchroom, but she is determined not to let her
secret shortcomings cause her to lose the position.
These four
women have much to dislike about each other, but they unanimously agree
that Mr. Wynton is the best of employers and must be protected at all
costs from someone who seems determined to see him gone for good. When
other employee deaths occur, can the women band together to solve the
murders, or will they discover it is one of their own bent on destroying
Wynton’s from within?
My Review:
I absolutely love when an author takes the points of view and lives of different people and intertwines them. They show all aspects and viewpoints. I really enjoyed this story, mainly because of that feature.
Set in the 1950's is the perfect setting for this story. Each of these women work at a department store in town. Each of these co-workers find a way to come together to protect whats most important. The girls at Wynton's are like family probably much more than they realized. There will be an event that causes them deep ambivalence and then a restored resilience. They get very protective when they feel when their beloved Mr Wynton seems in danger.
A great story of friendship and teamwork and overall family.
