It’s 1943 and the war escalating in Europe and the Pacific seems far away. But for aspiring actress Rosie Winter, the war feels as if it were right in New York City. The factories are desperate for women workers, but Rosie the Thespian isn't about to become Rosie the Riveter, so she grabs a part-time job at a seamy, lowbrow detective agency instead.
Kathryn Miller Haines's The War Against Miss Winter introduces not only an unforgettable new sleuth but also an exciting new voice in the mystery genre. This fast-paced tale of murder and deception from an emerging Pittsburgh-based author brings the World War II era vividly to life.
