Come Hell or Highball by Maia Chance
4.0
A fun new series for me to explore. Lola Woodby's dissolute husband, Albie, dies and leaves her with nothing but a loyal, Swedish cook, Berta. Because of his ways she is forced out of her home by his prig of a brother, Chisholm (even the name is prissy). Fortunately she knows he had a love nest in Washington Square and so with Berta and a cute dog names Cedric in tow moves in there.
At the funeral one of Albie's floozies asks her to find a film reel for her and offers her $3,000 to do so. In dire straits she agrees.
What ensues is a fun story about rich people, movie people, gangsters and rumpled but sexy private eye.
I really enjoyed this book and am looking forward to reading the next one.
