London, 1927. The city is buzzing with life and at the centre of it all is 30-year-old Grace Rutherford. By day, Grace is a copy-writer at one of Londons biggest advertising agencies but by night she leads a double life as Diamond Sharp, the sharp-tongued author of a racy newspaper gossip column. Diamond Sharp on The Charleston:Last night a louche gentleman wreaked violent Charleston on me. They dance it dandily in Paris so how much longer is it going to be before the Londoner learns how to do it properly?But, although on the face of it Grace is a party girl without a care in the world, she is struggling with a troubled home life and lives in fear that her sister Nancy will discover a guilty secret she is keeping.And when Grace meets two enigmatic Americans who are sworn enemies, she is drawn into a nest of secrets, lies and love which will turn her life upside down and change it for ever.
