QUICKSTEP TO MURDER

A BALLROOM DANCE MYSTERY

BY ELLA BARRICK

ABOUT THE BOOK:

What if your dance partner, business partner, and fiancé was stepping out with another woman? That's exactly what happens to Stacy Graysin, who shares ownership of a ballroom dance studio with the man who broke her heart, Rafe Acosta.

But when Stacy discovers Rafe's dead body in the studio one dark night, the police suspect her of killing him. To clear her name and save her studio, Stacey teams up with Rafe's estranged cousin from Argentina, Tav, to find the real killer. And if Stacy doesn't watch her step, the killer may make this dance her last.

PRAISE FOR QUICKSTEP TO MURDER:
“Barrick keeps [readers] hopping with a classy little mystery set in the world of professional dancing.” 
- 4 stars   Romantic Times 

"VERDICT Perfect for all your dance show fans. Barrick brings a light step and upbeat tempo to her debut. Readers will like the adjacency to the greater DC area (plot potential there) and the interplay between generations. Who wouldn't want to spice up their lives with a little ballroom?"

- Library Journal 

"Quickstep to Murder is a saucy welcome to the mystery genre and a fresh take on the subgenre - again, this is just what the cozy genre needs - and Barrick delivers. Reading audience, this chica is giving Barrick 10s across the board. Muy caliente!"

- By Diane Morasco, BLOGCRITICS.ORG 

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Ella Barrick grew up in the South, but has since migrated West.  She spent some time working for Uncle Sam and taught English at the college level before turning her hand to writing mysteries. 

Ella and her husband took exactly two ballroom dancing lessons on the quickstep before Ella’s bruised ankles and crushed feet forced them to retire.  (Her husband is a wonderful guy, but he doesn’t have a single ballroom dance gene in his whole body.)  Thus, Ella relies on the kindness of competitive ballroom dancers and friends who foxtrot fabulously for the dance details in her Ballroom Dance Mysteries.  And, of course, she watches Dancing with the Stars for costume and choreography ideas! 

Besides writing, Ella enjoys reading, gardening, home decorating, traveling, and long walks or hikes.
