"A girls' public school in Derbyshire has hit hard times, so a gala fundraising concert seems to be the answer. But proceedings come to an abrupt halt when the star attraction, cellist Lorna Smith-Couper, is murdered moments before she is due on stage. Intrepid journalist Lindsay Gordon steps in when her friend Paddy, a housemistress at the school, is charged with the murder. And so begins a relentless pursuit of the killer which stretches Lindsay's investigative skills to their very limit.

There is no shortage of suspects as Lindsay discovers that lovers and friends all have something to hide..."--Back cover
