Dancing Angels

Intrigue and Danger Dance Hand in Hand in Dancing Angels, a Historical Cozy Mystery from Alice Duncan

-1927, Los Angeles, California-

The Murray Dance Studio becomes a hotspot for murder when one of its talented dancers, Lucille Murray, is found dead. The once vibrant and glamorous studio now lies under a cloud of suspicion and fear.

Private Investigator Ernie Templeton is quickly drawn into the case when Mercy Allcutt, his spirited and determined assistant, insists on uncovering the truth. Despite Ernie’s objections, Mercy enlists the help of her friends Lulu and Sue, and together, the trio delves into an intricate world of dance, deception, and danger.

As Mercy, Ernie, Lulu, and Sue navigate a tangle of lies and secrets, they uncover rivalries, hidden agendas, and dangerous passions that threaten to consume them all. With each pirouette and paso doble, the stakes get higher, and the murderer is determined to keep the secrets buried at any cost.
