- Synopsis
- This latest Robert Forsythe-Abigail Sanderson mystery, A Death for a Dancing Doll, focuses on the wealthy, unconventional Holly-Pulos family of Western Canada. London barrister-sleuth Forsythe and his trusty secretary, Sandy are in Canada on vacation, taking advantage of the hospitality of a friend of Forsythe's, who has offered them a hotel suite. Their vacation is interrupted by an appeal from Rebecca Holly, who is distraught over the death of her granddaughter, Thalia, a promising young dancer. Rebecca doesn't believe the accepted verdict of suicide, and she wants Forsythe to find the truth-- and the killer. But pursuing any kind of investigation in the Holly-Pulos household won't be easy. Harriet Holly-Pulos, Thalia's aunt, is enigmatic and unapproachable; Dmitri Pulos, Harriet's much younger second husband, is not exactly forthcoming. When Forsythe and Sandy learn that Thalia's is not the first death in the family--that Harriet and Dmitri's little daughter, Iona, had died recently in a horrible accident; that Harriet's first husband had also died too young--they fear that their vacation is at an end and that the murders may have only just begun.
