| Annotation |
"Winter, 1936. Kitty receives an unexpected telegram just before Christmas saying that her father in New York is seriously ill. She and her husband Matt swiftly set out for America and, after a fraught ocean crossing, they arrive to discover he is much improved. Kitty decides to make the most of her visit by taking in the sights and attending a costume party thrown by her father's friend, Mrs. Dangerfield. After a fabulous night, Kitty and Matt blow away the cobwebs with a chilly morning walk in Central Park. They enjoy watching ice skaters glide across one of the frozen lakes but then they discover their hostess Mrs. Dangerfield murdered, her body partly hidden in some bushes. She is still in her evening wear, but her diamond earrings and necklace are missing. Soon Mrs. Dangerfield's resentful daughter, elderly chauffeur and secret lover make Kitty and Matt's suspect list. The finger of suspicion seems to be pointing towards Mrs. Dangerfield's secretary, but then the typist turns up dead too. With a mystery killer spoiling their trip to the big apple, will the amateur sleuths save the day, or will they breathe their last in the city that never sleeps ... ?" -- Goodreads. -- Some violence.
