Produktbeschreibung
In a tranquil retirement community in sunny Southern California, a widow and her three friends are out to catch a killer in their midst. When Marge moves into her new retirement community, she is befriended by Relda, who shares the trick to enjoying life at Laurel Pines - avoiding the rules and attending Friday night dances with Valentino, the handsome dance instructor. Marge is excited for her first dance, but the mood shifts when Valentino's final partner dies suddenly. The residents chalk the incident up to old age, and life goes on. Marge and Relda form a friendship with Albert and Gerald, and the foursome settle into the rhythm of retirement. But when another dance partner turns up dead, Marge suspects foul play and pays a visit to the local police precinct to share her theory, and after another resident collapses and dies on the dance floor, it becomes clear there is a murderer on the loose. Can Marge and her three friends catch the killer before the killer catches them?
Autorenporträt
Marion Rosen was a high school English teacher before becoming a full-time author. She collaborated on two high school textbooks and then decided to write something she enjoyed reading: mysteries. She wrote two mysteries: Death by Education and Don't Speak to Strangers, both published by St Martin's Press in 1993. Nearly 10 years later, she wrote a memoir about her experience battling and surviving two deadly cancers: Dance Like Nobody's Watching (2002). She wrote a second non-fiction book, A Kid from Pittsburgh (2010) based on her husband's amazing true story as an American soldier in World War II.At the age of 79, she moved into a retirement community during March of 2020, only to find herself locked down due to the pandemic. To avoid going crazy, she entertained herself by writing a mystery-one staged in a retirement community. It took exactly one year to write, which is about how long the lockdown lasted.
