"Murder at the Mikado" - Book Review

Murder at the Mikado is the third book in the Drew Farthering Mystery Series written by Julianna Deering. I have read the second book in the series - Death by the Book - and let me tell you, even though that one was good, this one is ten times better! I usually set end-dates for myself when reading a book that I'm going to review, but this one was finished in four days! It was that good!
 The case itself was riveting! An actor is found dead inside his dressing room at the Tivoli - all fingers point to Fleur Landis, Drew's old flame. Fleur comes to Drew for help, but Drew is planning his wedding and doesn't really want to focus on anything but that, and his fiancee Madeline-but he just can't let this mystery go unsolved and leave the poor girl in a fix. When a sort-of-script-girl is found strangled and stuffed into a wardrobe holding tightly to a tassel off of a cloak just like Fleur's, Fleur is then arrested. How could Lew Zuraw call Drew and tell him to come down to the theater immediately so he could disclose some important information, but then be found dead, strangled, with a tassle under his body, when Drew arrives? How could this be if the suspected murderess is in jail? Who is doing away with these people at the Tivoli? I have to tell you to read this enthralling, page-turner book for yourself to find out!  It will leave you wanting to turn every page, read every word, so you can just know who-done-it! I'm giving this book 5-out-of-5 stars, simply because it's that good! Love mysteries? Then you might not want to pass up Murder at the Mikado by Julianna Deering!
I received this book from Bethany House Publishers to write a review on it. I was not asked to write a positive review.
