‘So brilliantly enjoyable to read’ Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘Dandy Gilver never disappoints’ Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
1932, Glasgow: In a city bewitched by dance, the Locarno Ballroom’s annual trophy is the event of the season. Even society lady – and sometimes detective – Dandy Gilver is swept up. Never mind that one of last year’s entrants danced his way to an early grave.
After all, what’s the harm in a little competition.
When one of this year’s dancers, a rebellious debutante, starts receiving anonymous threats, her parents ask Dandy to investigate. But beyond the glitz and the glamour, the steps and the shine, dark forces are at play
A brilliantly thrilling and witty cosy historical locked-room mystery set in the glittering dancehalls of 1930s Glasgow. Perfect for fans of Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie and Richard Osman.
