Pirouettes, Soaring grand jetés, Heavenly music, Murder?!
Nobody in the last scene of the ballet Giselle was actually supposed to be dead. A witness to the baffling death, NYC Detective Frank Sutton is suspicious of ballet in general, suspicious of the throngs of company members unable to give him any straight answers, and most definitely, suspicious of the bewitchingly beautiful prima ballerina, Margot Johnson.
Why is the exquisite dancer retiring at such a young age? Was the murde
red Russian dancer a victim of international espionage or artistic rivalry? And most urgent: is Margot his prime suspect, or will she be the next to fall victim to the theater killer?
Reviewers say Second Act kept them reading all night, wishing the story would never end. A tender romance between two hardened cynics, Second Act has it all: a snowy New York City winter, the magic of dance, and a mystery that will keep you on your toes until the final curtain!
