The curtain's down... but who's hiding a deadly secret?

It's two weeks before Christmas, and Bramhurst's festive spirit has taken a tumble: the village panto has been cancelled.

Ellie Blix is reluctant to dismantle the set. But when she and her friend, Belle, meet the new director, Neville Snipe, at the village hall to give him back his property, a scream and a thud interrupt their plans.

Neville is found at the foot of the loft hatch - and it wasn’t a slip.

With more suspects than disappointed cast members, Ellie and her co-sleuths must untangle backstage rivalries, old grudges, and unrequited love.

And then there's the thorny question of what happened to Neville’s original "Cinderella"?

Can Ellie solve the case, find a new director and save the panto - all before Christmas?
