"A captivating and crackling noir full of suspenseful twists. Readers will fall in love with the Chow sisters and their quest for the truth." -Kathleen Glasgow, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Girl in Pieces and The Agathas
LOS ANGELES, 1932: Lulu Wong, star of the silver screen and the pride of Chinatown, has a face known to practically everyone, especially the Chow sisters-May, Gemma, and Peony-Lulu´s former classmates and neighbors. So the girls instantly know it´s Lulu when they discover a body one morning in an out-of-the-way stable, far from the Beverly Hills home where she lived after her fame skyrocketed.
The sisters suspect Lulu´s death is the result of foul play, but the police don´t seem motivated to investigate. Even worse, there are signs that point to a cover-up, and powerful forces in the city want to frame the killing as evidence that Chinatown is a den of iniquity and crime, even more reason it should be demolished to make room for the construction of a new railway depot, Union Station.
Worried that neither the police nor the papers will treat Lulu fairly-no matter her fame and wealth-the sisters set out to solve their friend´s murder themselves, and maybe save their neighborhood in the bargain. But with Lulu´s killer still on the loose, the girls´ investigation just might put them square in the crosshairs of a cold-blooded murderer.
