Book One of the Canary House Mysteries, a humorous mystery series set in 1930s New York City, featuring amateur sleuths and literary themes. When a washed-up Ziegfeld Follies star goes missing, can the Van der Beeck twins crack the case without breaking their necks, or losing their hearts? Throw in a soft-boiled detective, a handsome sergeant, and a houseful of tenants graced with more whimsy than wit, and you have the makings of a mad-cap mystery that will keep you guessing till the end.
