Description: |
From the author of MR SELFRIDGE, a glittering tale of jazz age London, and a woman who defined the roaring twenties. |
Synopsis: |
This is the rags to riches story of Kate 'Ma' Meyrick, the owner of the infamous 43 Club in Soho. It was a place where the aristocracy rubbed shoulders with the underworld, and where the key players of the roaring twenties congregated to dance the night away. Meyrick was no stranger to controversy, indeed she was sent to prison following the notorious corruption trial of Sergeant George Goddard, the policemen she paid for protection. Fizzing with the excitement and excess of the jazz age, MIDNIGHT MOTHER is not only the story of an extraordinary, iconic woman but also a fascinating insight into one of the most debauched and glamorous periods of London's history. |
