Renowned theater director Cordelia Thorn is working to
restore a historic theater in downtown Minneapolis that she
and her actress sister, Octavia, recently bought. Cordelia
has a vision for the playhouse’s future, but the more she
learns about the building, the more fascinated she becomes
by its past.
Nicknamed “The Old Deep and Dark” because of the
Prohibition-era double murder that occurred in the
basement—then a speakeasy—there are a wealth of secrets
hidden inside its walls. And, to her shock and horror,
Cordelia discovers that there is also one present-day body
literally buried in a basement wall. Cordelia immediately
calls on her best friend, P.I. Jane Lawless.
Although Jane is already in the thick of another
investigation—she's embroiled in a well-known
country-western singer’s family scandal—she agrees to help
Cordelia out on the side. But show-biz is a small world, and
as Jane starts tracing the trails of two separate
investigations, she's surprised to find they might not be as
unconnected as she thought.
With The Old Deep and Dark, the latest installment in the
award-winning Jane Lawless series, Ellen Hart has crafted
another impeccably plotted, seamlessly written mystery.
