Welcome to 1926 Seattle, where the blues are hot and the gin is served up cold LENA It's taken time but I'm slowly crawling my way up the entertainment industry ladder. I could get a lot farther, faster, if I were willing to play the old slap and tickle. Yeah.that's never gonna happen. But my newest move is a step in the right direction and it's my voice that earned me this gig. I feel on top of the world-right up until I discover who owns the joint.

Amidst saxophone players and cigarette girls, Lena and Booker try clinging to their old anger as a shield against future pain-even as ancient chemistry still weaves its magic. And in a town, where the hems are rising and morals are lowering, banked embers from the past just might ignite a bright new tomorrow. …

LENA
It’s taken time but I’m slowly crawling my way up the entertainment industry ladder. I could get a lot farther, faster, if I were willing to play the old slap and tickle. Yeah…that’s never gonna happen. But my newest move is a step in the right direction and it’s my voice that earned me this gig. I feel on top of the world—right up until I discover who owns the joint.

Of all the speakeasies, in all the world, my manager had to give Lena Bjornstad a contract with the Twilight Room. Back in our hometown, before I signed up to fight the war to end all wars, I loved her with everything I had. She claimed she loved me, too. Look how goddamn swell that turned out.

And in a town, where the hems are rising and morals are lowering, banked embers from the past just might ignite a bright new tomorrow.
