    About the book: 2003 / Sam Jones lives in London, has multi-colored hair, wears chunky lace-up shoes, listens to terrible music and sculpts grandiose abstracts sculptures. Sam Jones is also friendly, men like her (and men like her), she has weird friends, and she constantly trips over corpses. In short, Sam Jones has an incredibly interesting and eventful life, but despite her punk appearance, she is a very serious and responsible girl. Finding herself in a nightclub with a dubious reputation, Sam unexpectedly receives an offer to stage a performance based on a Shakespeare play. Having given her consent, she plunges into the strange, mysterious, funny and unexpectedly creepy world of the theater, where everyone has their own secret, where heterosexuals pretend to be gay, stars pretend to be fools, and where intrigues sometimes end in deaths that are very similar to murders. Lauren Henderson writes detective stories, but her the books - while observing all the canons of the genre - are by no means banal crime entertainment, they are urban comedies with bright characters, subtle observations, sometimes risky jokes and an unexpected ending. “Freeze my Margarita” - a funny and exciting theatrical story with a surprisingly unconventional and attractive heroine.
