Thief in the Theatre
(2026)(The tenth book in the Sweet Home Louisiana Cozy Mystery series)
A Story by Summer Prescott
The final curtain…can be murder.
A bargain movie night with her friend Sue Ann is supposed to give Missy Beckett a few hours of popcorn, nostalgia, and spirited debate over whether any remake can possibly top the original.
Instead, when the house lights come up at LaChance’s Bayou Theatre, a young woman is found dead in the back row.
The victim, Darcy LeMoyne, once worked at the theatre and left under a cloud of suspicion after money began disappearing from the nightly deposits. But Darcy had been determined to clear her name, and Missy soon discovered that plenty of people had reasons to hope she never got the chance.
With more suspects than there are grains of salt in a shaker, she definitely has her work cut out for her, though she leans strongly toward a few who’ve been acting nothing but oddly since the tragic event.
Appearances can be deceiving and it seems that somebody in LaChance has been putting on a performance worthy of the big screen.
With cupcakes at the ready, Waffle by her side, and her knack for seeing what others overlook working overtime, Missy must separate fact from fiction before the final curtain falls on another victim.
Grab your popcorn and settle in for a deliciously twisty Sweet Home Louisiana Cozy Mystery filled with small-town secrets, Southern charm, lovable characters, and murder!
