Though Eleanor Prentice wins, on the night of the performance she cannot play.

A case of sinister infatuation for the brilliant Chief Detective-Inspector Alleyn.

Intricate plot, good narration

Just working my way through the oeuvre again. This is where the books take off and become more nuanced. Ngaio Marsh is an excellent writer of her age of detective fiction.
