Review
"...one of the best bargains on the shelves - the latest words from Canada's remarkable Ladies' Killing Circle." -- The Ottawa Citizen
Book Description
Music may soothe the savage breast, but in this fifth collection of witty and wicked crime fiction from the Ladies' Killing Circle, music provides the background for tales of murder and mayhem. Eighteen stories by Canadian women crime writers along with poems from Joy Hewitt Mann take their inspiration from titles as varied as the upbeat "Wake Up Little Suzie" through the romantic "Summertime" and musicals such as "There's No Business Like Show Business". It's a collection you won't want to put down until you've read every one and hummed all the tunes. You'll never listen to your favourite songs again without wondering what nefarious deeds they may have inspired.
