The least likely person is the killer,
and no one is really who they seem.”
So Jordan Hope tells his cast as they
prepare to rehearse a production of
Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap,
but unbeknown to him, a murder
has occurred that night in the snowy
streets of Gastown, and soon,
everyone involved in the show will
become embroiled in a real-life plot
where the unexpected twists and
turns will emulate every trick and
contrivance of the play itself.

"The characters and situations all ring
with authenticity.  This author knows her
fictional world and has created an enduring
and fascinating set of characters. 

The author keeps each story fresh with unique
and specific details and with realistic crime-
related  events.  At the same time, the
collection as a whole has its own rise, climax
and fall... a craftily constructed collection that
speaks in both its singular stories and in a
collective voice. 

Readers of mysteries will enjoy this collection.
The book has literary value too - many artful,
lovely passages - this is very strong writing put
to use for a great collection of engaging stories."
