Opening night is murder for two sisters when death takes center stage in a Manhattan-set mystery from "America's Agatha Christie" (The Star). With her playwright husband engrossed in his first effort to reach Broadway, Diana Van Seidem is happy to be escorted around town by professional ladies' man Gil Sangford. Everyone knows it's an innocent flirtation, until Gil is found shot to death in her house. Diana's sister Emily can't believe her sister is capable of murder, but the police think otherwise. They discover that Diana had lured Gil to her home after finding out about his engagement to the actress starring in her husband's play. There's enough evidence to put Diana away for life. With her sister behind bars-Emily struggles to accept her new reality-and her long-suppressed feelings for Diana's husband. But the curtain hasn't closed on this family drama. Far from it. Emily is determined to prove Diana's innocence, not realizing that the only way to unmask the real killer is by becoming their next target . . . "[A] suspenseful whodunit." -The Northern Echo "Snugly suspenseful murder mystery among New York's best and richest families." -The Observer "I enjoyed every page . . . I recommend it heartily." -Eastern Daily Press "Another workmanlike, highly professional piece of story-telling." -Belfast Telegraph
