Description
Chicago. 1935. The Great Depression has brought America to its knees, and the people are dying for some entertainment.
Luckily for them, a murder has been scheduled for opening night at The Red Rising Theater. When the lead actress receives a death threat, Detective Rowan Manory and his partner Walter Williams agree to take the case. Neither realizes the curtain is rising on the deadliest and most vexing mystery of their career.
There will be 200 witnesses in the seats and not a single suspect on the stage. Could this be the perfect murder?
The Opening Night Murders is a thrilling impossible crime novel that will keep you guessing from the first clue right up to the shocking finale.
