Dead on Her Feet — Christine T. Jorgensen

A TRAGEDY IN THREE ACTS

Providing astrological advice for the lovelorn is balm for the spirit, but unfortunately for Stella the Stargazer, not very fruitful for the pocket. So she's moonlighting as the assistant director for the local production of The Garden of Iden. And with a title like that, she should have known there would be problems: an anxious producer, a temperamental cast, a stage mother from hell.

So when Barbara Steadman is found barely alive and tied to a Venus flytrap prop--by a cord around her neck, the cast can only wonder. A second "accident" nearly knocks the director out of his chair... permanently. Then a real corpse makes an appearance and the show takes a very dramatic turn to murder.
