A Baffling Murder at the Midsummer Ball by T.E. Kinsey

4.0

I read the first Dizzy Heights mystery last year and enjoyed it so much that I went on to read most of his other series. I was really happy to be able to read this pre-publication in exchange for an honest review.
The story is set in 1925 and is a must for lovers of the roaring twenties and the jazz age. The Dizzy Heights are booked to play at a ball and inevitably get mixed up with a mysterious death. It's a classic locked room mystery and has quite a complicated plot which all gets resolved in a satisfactory manner very reminiscent of Agatha Christie. The author has done his research on the period and it really comes alive with snappy dialogue between the members of the band and their companions.
