Overview
Mad Music was the buzziest new show of the upcoming Broadway season, with a hot score, a cool director, and a deadly plot twist no one saw coming. When rumors of a behind-the-scenes disaster surface, ballerina Leah Siderova finds herself with the opportunity of a lifetime: the chance to make her Broadway debut while playing a double role. The producers hope to capitalize on her talent, as well as her devoted fan base, to revive ticket sales. Leah's true reason for abandoning Lincoln Center for the Great White Way is her undercover investigation of online threats against Amber Castle, the star of the show. Leah finds herself in a deadly race against time as the virtual threats escalate into real-life violence. Her collaboration with the handsome detective assigned to the case complicates their fragile romance as she battles jealousy, hidden motives, and a shadowy stalker who endangers her personal and professional future. Surrounded by actors skilled in deception, can Leah solve the mystery in time to save the show?

Reviews
"Praise for the On Pointe Mystery Series ""Robbins, a former ballerina, steeps the novel in the glamorous grunge of the dance world...The result is a suspenseful romp with loads of atmosphere. A highly entertaining whodunit with a twisty plot and plenty of biting ballet intrigue."" - Kirkus Review [starred review] ""Robbins does an outstanding job of juxtaposing the ballet world with the investigative process that challenges Leah's set roles, forcing her to new heights of realization about the world of dance, her colleagues, and her own ambitions. This makes for compelling reading... the tension is finely drawn and the movements between dance and death assume their own form of masterful entwining that keeps readers involved in a realistic character's moves. Exquisitely complex, nicely steeped in both drama and the competitive atmosphere of the dance world."" - D. Donovan, Sr. Reviewer, Midwest Book Review"
