Summary When once-famous theatrical impresario Bert Billingham is found dead, no one suspects foul play. But when the post mortem reveals that he was poisoned, suspicion falls on his wife, eccentric ex-Music Hall star Verity Malone. Frustrated by the police response to Bert's death and determined to prove her innocence. Verity calls in private detective duo Emma Holmes and Sam Collins. This is their first real case, but luckily they have a friend on the inside of the acting world. Max Mephisto, former comrade-in-arms of Emma's husband, detective Edgar Stephens. Max is filming a remake of Dracula, starring Bert's son, Seth. But Max is playing his cards close to his chest. Emma must vie with the police - including her husband - to untangle the case. She and Sam are convinced the answer lies in Bert's dark past and in the glamorous, occasionally deadly, days of Music Hall. But the closer they get to the truth, the more danger they find themselves in.
