Wake Up to Murder

America's favorite amateur sleuth tunes into a highly-rated new series...of murders.

Steve Allen has just been asked to fill in as host for the popular morning talk show Good Morning U.S.A. But his debt is barely underway when the program is interrupted by technical difficulties: a soundman has been strangled with a microphone cord.

There's no shortage of suspects, from the perky co-host, whose on-camera smile conceals a troubled past, to the show's producer, who's terrified of getting killed in the ratings, to a TV weatherman who predicts the brewing of a fatal storm. But a repeat performance is on the killer's schedule as, one by one, the show's cast get the ax...

Now, while all America watches, Steve and his glamorous wife, Jayne Meadows, must clear up some very bad reception in order to solve a murderously clever mystery, before someone cancels their performance...permanently.
