The Last Line
Scott Lyerly
Featuring a neurodiverse lead living with Tourette Syndrome, Ellie Marlowe is ready for a curtain call as her latest production sells out, but when the starring male lead drops dead, and everyone in the cast is a potential suspect or the next victim, she must catch a killer before they pull another show stopping murder. The new production at Ellie Marlowe’s community theater could save her from financial ruin, if only her overbearing lead, Reginald Thornton IV, wasn’t determined to antagonize every cast member. Nervous and with her Tourette Syndrome flaring, Ellie is delighted when opening night goes off without a hitch. But when Reginald’s death scene at the end of the play turns out to be all too real, she quickly comes crashing down. The state police suggest the death was a drug overdose, but Reginal's widow insists he never used drugs. Unconvinced it was an overdose, Ellie and her childhood friend, the local chief of police, Bill Starlin, begin investigating. It isn't long before someone linked to the theater is attacked in her own home. As Ellie and Bill reveal connections between cast members, they uncover dark secrets and must race to find the killer before it’s curtains for someone else.
