β¦ Synopsis
The Valentine Ball, the glittering social event of 1932 Boston. Who would want to spoil a debutante cotillion with a murder?
Nurse Aggie Burnside goes to Boston to assist her cousin Amanda with the final touches on the dazzling debutante presentation to raise funds for a major hospital. But it seems there are new obstacles every day: the budget gets cut, the band quits, the finance manager interferes and the hospital board members argue.
Despite the hurdles, the evening comes together without a hitch. And then someone is murdered, and a large amount of money disappears.
What was the motive β theft, a long simmering resentment, wounded ego, a mother seeking status for her son, a failing marriage, or are local gangsters involved?
