This is a super fun novella in the Rivers of London series. Set in the jazzy Jazz Age, it is an adventure in New York City where music, speakeasies, race, and drag shows intersect bringing us delightful new characters dragged into a magical adventure when Thomas Nightingale swings into town. Fun backstory but even better for the evocative Jazz Age setting & tone with many memorable characters. Hold on tight, this one is quite a ride!
