Description
Mystery writer Jessica Fletcher can't seem to complete the writing of her latest murder mystery, what with having to deal with real life murders on both sides of the Atlantic. It's all in the family - so to speak. First of all, her cousin Emma, a London music hall singer, mysteriously disappears after a series of attempts on her life, leaving Jessica to look for the person who wants Emma dead. And then in New York, Jessica's niece, an actress in a TV soap opera, becomes the main suspect in the killing of the show's producer. But Jessica surprises audiences and performers alike by exposing both murderers, proving that, whether in London or New York, all the world's a stage!
