The Speakeasy Agnes H Hagadus

Erica Chase has been known as her twin brother Eric since he was tragically killed in front of her. It was during a turf war just before the start of Prohibition. She knew it was the only way she would ever have what she thought she always wanted. That was respect and the ability to make her own way in the world. Her way is the nightclub her father built and maintained called The Speakeasy. Emerald Knight has been on her own since her mother died and her father walked out on her. She has taken care of her wheelchair bound sister and herself by doing nearly everything she can. Her one true talent is singing. And using her feminine charms on her bosses to gain whatever she can. Things are never the same once Emerald becomes the headliner for The Speakeasy. Erica begins doing things she swore she never would do. That includes making it known that Emerald is her girl. But will that protect Emerald as Erica hoped? Or will it place them both in greater danger?
