|t is late winter 1934 in Manhattan when
DeeDee Carlson dies after falling from the
balcony of her apartment at the Ansonia. Her
boyfriend, Chip Stevenson, begs Honoria
Barlow-- his late mother s closest friend, and
his, as well--to look into the circumstances
of DeeDee s death.
Honoria insists that her experience as a
script doctor doesn t qualify her to play
gumshoe, but out of love for Chip, and
against the wishes of her protective, Russian-
born husband, Mikhail, she agrees to do a lit-
tle sleuthing. This commitment
Honoria and her assistant,
Maybelle
takes
, into
some of New York s most elegant dwellings
where they meet the dead girl s mother and
friends. Some of DeeDee s friends adored
her; some loathed her. The young woman
had many secrets, and as Honoria begins to
uncover them, the situation turns as danger-
ous as the murderously cold weather.
With homeless families living in a
Hooverville in Central Park, and the popular
radio shows, restaurants, nightclubs, and
shops, the era is meticulously reproduced; it s
black and white, like a film that s the end-
product of one of Honoria s doctored scripts.
It s Manhattan; it s a clever, unique woman
working her way through a puzzle; and, ulti-
mately, it s a matter of whether Honoria will
survive the experience.
