In the theater, reality and make-believe blend so intimately that Tim Briscoe was convinced that he was playing the role of detective when he stumbled upon the lifeless form of Nellie Brant. But the corpse was real, even though everything and everybody else seemed fictitious. There was the elusive man who wore dark glasses, the actress who chose sudden death as the background for an audition, the ex-silent-film star who stooged on quiz shows for his daily bottle, and Maggie, who loved him but didn't believe in the effect of too many Scotches. This backstage mystery was written by a man who knew the theatrical world inside out. The characters and scenes are as authentic as Variety, as real as a closing notice.

Still convinced that Nellie was murdered, Tim, with some help from Maggie, continues to ask questions and look into Nellie’s past. He has obviously stirred something up as before too long he is the victim of a couple of murder attempts.
As the author was himself both a stage actor and a director his take on the theatrical world is of particular interest. There’s plenty of back stabbing and stage politics to keep things moving along. I enjoyed all the wise cracking comments and the romance between Tim and Maggie was well done. A slightly over-the-top ending was the icing on the cake and I thoroughly enjoyed this light and lively crime story. ( )
