A Tom Doherty Associates book. Based on the F. Scott Fitzgerald's Great Gatsby.
Summary: Jordan Baker grows up in the most rarefied circles of 1920s American society-- she has money, education, a killer golf handicap, and invitations to some of the most exclusive parties of the Jazz Age. She's also queer and Asian, a Vietnamese adoptee treated as an exotic attraction by her peers, while the most important doors remain closed to her. But the world is full of wonders: infernal pacts and dazzling illusions, lost ghosts and elemental mysteries. In all paper is fire, and Jordan can burn the cut paper heart out of a man. She just has to learn how. (Publisher)
