Summary:

"Raised in the Danish Baptist Church, Rose Sorensen knows it's wrong to sing worldly songs. So she sings them when no one is around. One day, Rose's cousin takes her to Calliope's, a jazz club where blacks and whites mingle, brought together by music. She knows her parents have a husband in mind for her, yet Rose can't stop thinking about Theo Chastain, the African American pianist for the Chess Men. Then she's offered a job as their singer. Rose would earn money to help care for her sister, who has cerebral palsy--but at what cost?"--Back cover.
