Produktbeschreibung

A war bond tour full of eager young women. A sunny town with a seedy underbelley. When the Florida girls start shooting back, will anyone survive?

St. Petersburg, Florida, 1944. Thelma Miles can't stomach injustice. Broke and orphaned near the close of WWII, the 18-year-old joins a troupe of touring swimsuit models hoping for a fresh start, only to discover she's stepped into the mafia's lair.

Kathleen Young, desperate to save her business and ailing husband, organizes the tour. But her single-minded focus blinds her to the dangers lurking beneath the surface.

L.L. Kirchner's twisty debut novel Florida Girls weaves a rich tapestry of:

• Real-life characters and meticulous historical detail
• Resilient women fighting to reclaim their place in post-war America
• A gripping blend of glamor, crime, and unexpected alliances

NYT-bestselling author Jane Heller raves: "Florida Girls is a rollicking debut novel brimming with colorful characters, twists and turns and, at its heart, women who overcome different backgrounds to form an unbreakable bond."

Perfect for fans of:

• Complex, multi-layered narratives
• Coming-of-age stories set against historical backdrops
• Vivid period details that transport you to 1940s Florida

Florida Girls is the first explosive entry in The Queenpin Chronicles series. Follow Thelma and Kathleen as they navigate a rapidly changing world, discovering untapped reserves of strength, brutality, and love.
