Mystery Amateur Sleuth | Thriller
Margaret Truman, who knows where all the bodies are buried
inside the Beltway, has written her most thrilling novel
of suspense yet. Murder at the Opera features the popular
crime-fighting couple Mac Smith and his wife, Annabel Reed-
Smith, as they navigate the glitz, glamour, and grime that
is Washington, D.C.
It ain’t over till the fat lady
sings . . . but the show hasn’t even started yet when a
diva is found dead. The soprano in question, a petite
young Asian Canadian named Charise Lee, was scarcely a
star at the Washington National Opera. But when the
aspiring singer is stabbed in the heart backstage during
rehearsals, she suddenly takes center
stage.
Georgetown law professor Mac Smith thought
he’d just be carrying a rapier in Tosca as a favor for his
beloved Annabel, but now they’re both being pressured by
the panicked theater board to unmask a killer. Providing
accompaniment will be former homicide detective, current
P.I., and eternal opera fan Raymond Pawkins.
Soon
the Smiths find themselves dangerously improvising among
an expanding cast of suspects with all sorts of scores to
settle. What they uncover is an increasingly complex case
reaching far beyond Washington to a dark world of
informers and terror alerts in Iraq, and climaxing on a
fateful night at the opera attended by none other than the
President himself.
