Death and the Last Tango (Pelican Shores #10) by Bessie Barr

SYNOPSIS

Death dances in Pelican Shores this Valentine’s Day ❤️

Finn Dockrey expects roses, rhythm, and romance when Pelican Shores hosts a dazzling Argentine Tango Exhibition to save the aging Deveraux Theatre. Instead, the final performance ends with a body onstage, and the most enigmatic man in the room dead at her feet.

Finn has a knack for stumbling into murder scenes. She and her best friend, Birdie, dive in with fearless enthusiasm, aided by Finn’s golden retriever, with his uncanny nose for secrets, and Birdie’s cat with her perfectly-timed interference.

Island gossip ignites, suspect lists stack, and clues surface squeezing through the sequined costumes and backstage grudges.

Suspicions swirl around the passionate tango instructors with something to hide and a jilted husband whose resentment toward the victim was no secret. Add a smooth-talking newcomer and whispers of Chicago mob money, and every step forward feels dangerous.

With the killer growing bolder and the dance floor closing fast, Finn must uncover the truth before the next victim takes their final bow.

REVIEW

Death and the Last Tango is the perfect addition to the Pelican Shore series.  You never know what Shorelock Holmes and her friends will get involved in next.
