About This Book

Young society reporter Jasmine (Jazz) Cross longs to cover hard news, but she's stuck between two clashing cultures: the world of gossip and glamour vs. gangsters and gamblers. After Downtown Gang leader Johnny Jack Nounes is released from jail, all hell breaks loose: Johnny Jack blames Jasmine's half-brother Sammy Cook, owner of the Oasis speakeasy, for his arrest and forces him to work overtime in a variety of dangerous mob jobs as punishment.

Rival gangs and dirty cops are all gunning for Prohibition Agent James Burton, Jazz's off-and-on-again beau, and he must go into hiding for his own safety. When Burton is framed for a bar owner's murder, he and Jazz must work together to prove his innocence. Jazz decides to investigate the barkeep's death and is on the scene during a bloody mob hit. She looks for clues linking the two murders and delves deeper into the underworld of gambling: poker games, slot machines and horse-racing. Jazz tries to keep both Agent Burton and her brother safe, and alive, while they face off against a common enemy.
