Murder and mayhem backstage at the pantomime, from professional actress turned crime writer. It begins with a mysterious death in a lonely cottage... but where will it end?

Mystery piles on top of mystery for Lexy Lomax, still masquerading as a private investigator in Clopwolde-on-Sea.

Did Aunt Elizabeth fall out of the cottage window – or was she pushed?

What makes Kinky the chihuahua run a mile from the cottage when everyone else wants to get their hands on it?

Is there really a Black Dog, or is it Lexy's imagination playing tricks?

And why on earth has Gerard, her obnoxious ex, turned up in the village?

Dark forces are not only at work – they're positively running amok...
