Overture to Death (Roderick Alleyn Series #8)

by Ngaio Marsh Narrated by ric jerrom

Overview

It was planned as an act of charity: a new piano for the parish hall, an amusing play to finance the gift. The question now under bitter discussion is, who shall play the overture?

Though Eleanor Prentice wins, on the night of the performance she cannot play. Miss Campanula steps triumphantly into the breach - a chord is struck, a shot rings out, and Miss Campanula is dead, shot between the eyes. A case of sinister infatuation for the brilliant Chief Detective-Inspector Alleyn.

Overture to Death was first published in 1939.

It's time to start comparing Christie to Marsh instead of the other way around.
