Hilary Quayle and her assistant, Gene, are asked to take on the
publicity for an extravagant production of Macbeth to premiere at
Madison Square Garden's Felt Forum. Hilary had known the director
many years ago in summer stock. Events proceed as usual in the
theatrical world -- a world fraught with the hectic, the
impassioned, the absolute certainty that nothing will be ready by
opening night, and the absolute drive to belie that certainty.And
on the night of the technical/dress rehearsal all efforts seem to
be paying off with a rather splendid production -- until one of the
corpses turns out not to be acting, and the gunshot during the
blackout turns out to be no flamboyant anachronism.Hilary suspects
the play's the thing and studies the text and old sourcebooks, her
trail finally taking her to the Folger Library in Washington, D.C.
Gene, meanwhile, pursues the problem in more traditional fashion.
His investigations leads through New York's glamorous and less than
glamorous theatrical circles.The conclusions and solutions they
find will surprise everyone. reader who enjoys good and intriguing
mysteries.
