Deadly Dancing at the Seaview Hotel by Glenda Young

4 December 2025 By Editor

Buy Deadly Dancing at the Seaview Hotel by Glenda Young

Tommy Two Shoes, Ballroom Bev and their quirky troupe of ballroom dancers come to the seaside town of Scarborough — and Helen Dexter’s Seaview Hotel.

However, beneath the glitter balls and sequins, there’s bitter rivalry between the dancers — both on and off the dance floor — and the dancing turns deadly when one of them ends up murdered.

Aided by her rescue greyhound Suki and the Seaview Hotel cook Jean (a no-nonsense Yorkshire woman you don’t want to mess with!), Helen steps out and puts her best foot forward. But can she solve the crime?

Deadly Dancing at the Seaview Hotel by Glenda Young is published on 4 December, 2025.
