When a celebrated tenor dies onstage during a performance of Un Ballo in Maschera, Chief Inspector D.T. Giovanni is thrust into a case as complex-and as theatrical-as the opera itself.
Allemonde's summer opera festival, held each year in a tiny European duchy, is no stranger to backstage drama. But this time, the drama has spilled into the spotlight. With the main stage closed off as a crime scene, a rogue impresario improvises an outdoor venue overnight, and the show must go on ... whether or not a murderer is still waiting in the wings.
As Giovanni digs deeper, he uncovers a tangle of secrets involving romantic rivalries, underworld connections, and one very lucrative apothecary. Everyone from stagehands to sopranos seems to have something to hide. And as the body count rises, Giovanni realizes the mystery may strike closer to home than he ever expected.
Witty, atmospheric, and filled with operatic flair, Monty Verdi is a pitch-perfect finale to the acclaimed Allemonde mystery series-where murder meets music, and justice takes center stage.
