This was a quick read, as can be seen in how rapidly I finished it. The entire tale takes place in the course of a single day, in which Miss Pettigrew, a governess, is sent to seek a position from a nightclub singer. Miss LaFosse (the singer) immediately pulls Miss Pettigrew into the drama of her life. The intricacies of the characters and how fully developed they are make this a treat to read. However, the happenings of the day leave Miss Pettigrew and her ever-virtuous nature in doubt of her moral and sheltered upbringing. Not sure I would condone the message, but it would be a great book to discuss as it is read.
Next book:
