REVIEWS
" a smart, funny, and entertaining mystery " ~ CherryandSpoon.com
" there are generous servings of false leads, mistaken identities, plot twists, double dealings, mysterious unsigned notes, smoking pistols, sharpened knives, and witty repartee. Playwright Hatcher, with a tip of the hat to novelist Millett, has created a dandy joy ride that keeps the audience guessing not only who did it, but why and how and making sure that the pleasure of the game is drawn out to the very end, with every scene adding a piece to the puzzle, but nothing tipping the author's hand sharp dialogue skillful writing" ~ TalkinBroadway.com
