Book review: Kate Atkinson, 'Shrines of Gaiety'

In 1926 London, there’s still a mood of giddy survival underlaid by terrible loss. A notorious businesswoman — she runs nightclubs — is freed from prison; meantime, young women are disappearing, and turning up dead. Two detectives, one old-school and one new, join forces. This tale, Kate Atkinson's latest, gets a big thumbs up from reviewer Colette Bancroft.
