Murder at the Piccadilly Playhouse C.J. Archer

A famous actress is dead. But was it by her own hand? Or was there something more sinister at play? 
Cleo made a little bit of a name for herself solving the murder of a man in her uncle's hotel. Because of that, the actress's lover asks her to look into the death. We get to see more of the people who work at the hotel, including Cleo's maid Harmony and the others who help her in her inquiries. We also see a bit of Mr. Armitage, although, he mostly refuses to join Cleo so there's not much of him. 
Cleo seems determined to get her name next to his on his detective business though. She sort of blunders her way around and there was at least one informant that there is some foreshadowing around, that he may not be innocuous and seems to have settled his focus on Cleo.
