When Fleur asks for his help, he refuses, but when her husband asks, Drew can't force himself to refuse again. Drew and Nick are drawn into another investigation. With Madeline at his side, Drew is convinced he can solve the riddle this murder represents.
Madeline is intimidated by the striking beauty and the history Drew shares with Fleur. She calls off the wedding with only a couple of weeks to go. When a second murder occurs and without Madeline by his side, Drew nearly abandons the quest, but with nothing left to lose and an enigmatic promise to learn more about his mother, Drew presses on with the investigation.
Drew Farthering is a charming young man who has the ability to get people to talk to him. MURDER AT THE MIKADO continues the Drew Farthering Mystery series with an intricately plotted mystery. No one at the theater is who they seem, and Drew will be forced to uncover secrets people would prefer stay hidden. Julianna Deering has done a splendid job of drawing in the reader and keeping them guessing. The revelations at the end will surprise and delight the reader.
Book Summary
When a CELEBRATED ACTOR IS FOUND MURDERED IN HIS DRESSING ROOM, All signs point to Drew's Old Flame. But Behind the Curtains nothing is what it seems and this Quickly Becomes his MOST puzzling case YET.
Just as Drew Farthering thinks his life has calmed down some, Fleur Landis, a former girlfriend, reappears, in dire need of his help. She's married now, no longer an actress--but the lead actor in her former troupe's production of The Mikado has been murdered, and Fleur is the police's number one suspect.
Drew would rather focus on his fiancée, Madeline Parker, and their upcoming wedding, but he can't leave Fleur and her family in the lurch--even if she did break his heart once. As Drew, Nick, and Madeline begin investigating, they discover more going on behind the scenes of the theater troupe than could ever have been imagined. It seems nearly everyone had a motive, and alibis are few and far between.
Both the murder case and the presence of the beautiful, exotic Fleur put a heavy strain on Drew and Madeline's relationship. Will their still-young romance survive the pressure?
