The Painted Fan - Paperback

One fall. Two eras. No way back.

Ruby Saunders is finally on the brink of the life she has always wanted-law school, a prestigious internship at a downtown Tampa law firm, and a future that feels perfectly within reach.

Then one storm changes everything.

After a lightning strike, a cry in the dark, and a fall on a spiral staircase, Ruby wakes to find the law office transformed into a dazzling 1940s gentlemen's club. At first, she thinks it must be a dream.

It isn't

.

Behind the music, glamour, and smoke-lit elegance of The Painted Fan, Ruby discovers a chilling plot involving three kidnapped women from Havana-and a powerful Tampa crime syndicate with ties reaching deep into the city's legal system.

Alone, out of time, and unsure who can be trusted, Ruby must find a way to stop the plan before it's too late.

Because someone is watching her.

And they know she doesn't belong.
