Fatal Follies

During the 1930s, Violet Kasselhoff and Zue Lindstrom perform as the Daring Darlings dance and variety team with Frankie Fontaine’s traveling revue show. En route to their next gig, Zue happens to witness a murder on the train next to theirs, the strangulation death of movie star Carlotta Negri. From then on, the girls become targets of a clever murderer; they also find themselves in even greater danger when they discover the corpse of one of their troupe members, the baton twirling Lil’ Sweetie Pie, dead in their costume trunk. With the help of Sergeant Ralph Purvis, the girls pursue clues that will lead them to the murderer, with Violet striking up a romance with Ralph in the process.
