Synopsis

Thanksgiving night in Kansas City means the Plaza Lighting Ceremony.

When Ellison Jones and her family go to her great-aunt's apartment to see the lights come on, she doesn't anticipate a murder (she never does). But when a shirt-tail relative falls from a seventeenth-floor balcony, she and Anarchy are drawn into the investigation.

Can they catch a killer before anyone else dies?

About Julie Mulhern

Julie Mulhern is the USA Today bestselling author of the Country Club Murders series. She is a Kansas City native who grew up on a steady diet of Agatha Christie. She spends her spare time whipping up gourmet meals for her family, working out at the gym, and finding new ways to keep her house spotlessly clean-and she's got an active imagination. Truth is, she's an expert at calling for take-out, she grumbles about walking the dog, and the dust bunnies under the bed have grown into dust lions.

In addition to mysteries, Julie writes historical, romantic suspense. Her first romance, A Haunting Desire, was a finalist in the 2014 Golden Heart® contest.

The lively, interesting discussion of the film noirs at times veers off into the intellectual (i.e., Freud), but I liked the book for the most part. Author's fave noirs are also mine: OUT OF THE PAST and GUN CRAZY. The movies' p......more
