📌 Patreon — ad-free, early access, bonus content (tiers from $2.99/month) https://www.patreon.com/NocturnalTales A poisoned pastry. A jealous prima ballerina. And one very elegant detective with an incurable weakness for cake. When Melbourne's Princess Theatre becomes the scene of an "accidental" poisoning, the city's most stylish lady detective finds herself surrounded by satin, rivalry and deceit. Between a visiting troupe from Castlemaine and a suspicious tray of almond cakes, she must dance her way through envy, ambition and a distinct whiff of arsenic to unmask the culprit before the curtain falls. The Ballerina's Revenge is a witty, glamorous 1920s whodunit of sabotage, sugar and satin — starring an irresistibly stylish sleuth who takes her cases, and her cake, very seriously. ℹ️ FOR LISTENERS This is an original 1920s-style mystery written in the classic tradition — an entirely fictional story and our own invention.
