I'll begin by saying I know this author from some online groups and have enjoyed another series she writes.This one is a vintage mystery, set in the early forties, with a six foot heroine named Persephone; Percy for short.She's a single mother when single mothers aren't generally the norm. She's also a private detective when female private detectives certainly aren't the norm. She's had to fight for her career.When a theater producer hires her to find out who murdered his lead in Macbeth, she jumps into the fray. She even takes on the part of a witch to try to ferret out the killer.She's tough and eager to prove herself. And, being our heroine, in the end she triumphs!Good read, filled with period details such as the price of bread. If you like vintage cozies, you'll like this one.
