Summary

1960s Brighton, England... Take your partners… as crime reporter Colin Crampton dances to foil an assassination before the music fades.

A hitman with a legend in his crosshairs.

The tango school that hides a mystery.

A reporter chasing danger for a headline.

Blood seeps through the ceiling at crime reporter Colin Crampton’s favourite restaurant while he’s dining with his feisty Australian girlfriend Shirley Goldsmith. Colin discovers a dead body upstairs. He reckons he’s cracked the story when he links the murder to a sinister figure who’d backed war-time Nazis and quit Britain.

But that’s just a theory. Colin needs evidence to nail the killer. It looks like a tango academy lies at the heart of the mystery. But the truth is even stranger. Colin tangles with a professor of witchcraft and a dance instructor as he races against time to foil an assassination. The laughs are never far from the action when Colin and Shirley face dangers they never anticipated as they race to crack the case.

“Rattles along at just the right pace. Hugely enjoyable.”—Ingénue magazine

“A delight from start to finish.”—Fully Booked

This was an entertaining story with characters that exploded into life from the very first chapter. Well written from start to finish, I enjoyed the narration; an audio production filled with mystery and intrigue, but with laugh out loud humour throughout. The era is well depicted, so much so it calls to mind one of those old black and white movies made in the 60s. So for those who enjoy journalism and wit, 60s nostalgia, combined with an amateur sleuth style detective story, this is for you.

Entertaining and light hearted murder mystery
