I really loved this book! Sophia and Grace Mitchell were living on the streets as young girls because their parents were both killed in an accident. They were taken in by movie producer Florenz Ziegfeld, Jr. When he found the two living on the streets near his theater. He gave them both a job and paid for everything for them growing up. In the meantime, Chet Riker finds himself in need of some work, so he asks Ziegfeld for work. That's where he met Grace, but she was too endebted to Ziegfeld to pursue anything with anyone. But then those circumstances change after some horrific happenings that leave one murdered and someone responsible. Join Grace and the gang in this awesome read by Kara Bovee.
This is one good read that I thoroughly enjoyed. Most of the characters were amazing, and I loved getting to know them as the story unfolds. Grace was my favorite of all, she had the sweetest caring personality. But on the other hand, I could hardly read about mob-boss Joe Marciano and his goonies, but the bad guys have to be there to create some action and irritate people to make the book better, don't they? There is so much much to this story, involving Marciano and some of the others I can't touch on it without giving part of the plot away, so you need to just read for yourself.
A special thanks to the author/publisher for a copy of this book. I am not required to write a positive review, the opinions here are mine alone. I am disclosing this with my review in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255.

Grace in the Wings
I have had the pleasure of reading other books from the talented author, Kari Bovee. I was excited to have the opportunity to read her first installment from her Grace Michelle Mysteries series, Grace in the Wings. I thought it was an entertaining read. I was transported back in time to the 1920s in New Year City and met Grace Michelle. In the first few pages, I was quickly fascinated with her and the life she has led so far. Everything falls apart for her suddenly when she is thrown in the mystery of what happened to her sister. She finds herself, also, in danger. I had to keep reading to find out how the murder would be solved and what adventures would lie ahead for Grace. The plot was a little predictable at times but there were other times that had some twists I did not see coming. I could not put the book down until I had read the very last page. I thought it was great.
Grace in the Wings will be getting four and a half stars from me. I recommend it for readers who enjoy reading historical mysteries. I am looking forward to reading the next book Grace Michelle Mysteries series, Grace in Hollywood, to catch up and what happens next for Grace Michelle.
I received a digital copy of Grace in the Wings from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
