Editorial Reviews

Bullets and ballet may not be an obvious mix, but Colorado Springs writer B.J. Bowen ties them together in her second cozy mystery.

Emily Wilson, a flutist in the Monroe symphony, stumbles across the dying orchestra conductor, Felix Underhayes, just in time to hear his final words: "Tell her she's the only one ... ."

It's a romp of a mystery, as the investigating detective and the sister fall for each other, Emily's roommate and the symphony pr guy get it on, and Emily herself falls in love with the attorney. But as the mother, famous for her malapropisms, notes, "If it ends well, all's well."
