Amy Ephron brings to life the freedoms and strictures of Jazz Age New York Society through the stories of five women whose lives will be changed by gossip, secrets, and betrayal.

Four women at a bridge party in the elegant Gramercy Park Hotel spy a beautiful young woman, whom they all know, leaving a nearby hotel with a man who is not her husband. The sight of 20-year-old Lizzie Carswell with Billy Holmes is shocking-and potentially ruinous. And though the quartet promise to keep what they’ve seen to themselves, it is only a matter of time before one of them talks-with heartbreaking consequences for them all.
