Curtain Up on Murder


By Bettine Manktelow


An amateur drama company is rehearsing in the theatre at the end of a pier. Storms rage overhead and the doors are locked - they are trapped. Events take a sinister turn when a mysterious, ghostly presence passes across the stage, and when the assistant stage manager falls to certain death through a trap door the remaining actors are thrown into disarray. Their panic increases when one of the actresses is poisoned and it becomes evident that a murderer is in their midst. A murderer who, it soon transpires, will not stop until they are all dead!
