<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Star ballerina Leah Siderova becomes a murder suspect when her main rival is found stabbed in the back.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Ballerina Leah Siderova knows the career of a professional dancer is short. But rarely is it as brief as that of her rival, Arianna Bonneville, whose rise to stardom ends when she is stabbed in the back. New York City police detective Jonah Sobol fixes upon Leah as the prime suspect. After all, she was the one who found the body, she had the most to gain from Arianna's death, and it was her name Arianna whispered, just before she died. Leah is desperate to clear her name, and she begins her own investigation, collaborating with her best friend and her ballet coach. As the three dancers sort through backstage intrigues, attempted blackmail, and a tangle of romantic liaisons, the noose around Leah's neck grows tighter. Ballet, with its merciless discipline, is all Leah has ever known. Is that enough to keep her one step ahead of the police-and the killer? </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Everything is beautiful at the ballet--until it's not in this exciting and unputdownable mystery where dance is the backdrop for lies, jealousy and murder." -Cathi Stoler, author of Last Call A Murder On The Rocks Mystery. </p><p> </p><p>"Murder in First Position is definitely en pointe! It's not often you find a novel, let alone a mystery, set in the world of dance, but from page one, it's evident the author knows both the ballet subculture and New York City from an insider's perspective. Filled with dead bodies, unexpected suitors, red herrings and the humor for which this Silver Falchion-winning writer Is known, Murder in the First Position will keep you guessing until the final curtain call." -D.M. Barr, author of Saving Grace: A Psychological Thriller. </p><p> </p><p>Magnificent Mystery: 5 Stars</strong></p><p> </p><p>"Robbins pens a wonderful mystery story in Murder in First Position. The mystery surrounds ballerina Leah, whose rival was killed, and of course, everyone has eyes on her. If you love a great suspenseful and mysterious story, this book should be next on your list. I look forward to reading many more stories by this author. A definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews. [5 stars] "</p><br>
