Murder in Fifth Position: An On Pointe Mystery

Ballerina Leah Siderova has a lot in common with Superman. They both wear tights, perform for a fickle crowd, and worry about the state of the world. Unfortunately, only one of them can fly. And he wasn’t available the night Leland Vanderhof fell sixteen stories from his penthouse apartment to the pavement below. The scene of the crime was a glittering party, where two hundred dressed-to-kill guests gathered to celebrate three finalists for the Vanderhof Prize for Choreography. All profess shock at the tragic end of Leland’s life. One of them knows exactly how it happened. A second murder and a mysterious disappearance (or two) are bad enough. But when her extremely significant other, homicide detective Jonah Sobol, shows up with a glam new partner, Leah has to come up with a whole new set of moves. Can Leah find the killer, get the guy, win the prize, and rescue her career? Fans of Agatha Christie and Amazon’s hit series Étoile are assured of a front row seat, from the opening credits to the final curtain. View Less
