Mikado Murder

Book Three: Mikado Murder — A man is dead behind a painted Japanese stage set in a Subiaco theatre. The orchestra plays on for three more minutes. Four hundred people in the house do not yet know what has happened, and Dr Alex Moreton, classics lecturer and reluctant Yum-Yum, has ninety seconds to her cue."e;Alex Moreton is the detective I have been looking for. Not damaged. Not haunted. Not in recovery from anything. Simply very good at what she does and quietly at home in her life. That turns out to be more interesting than tortured. Dark academia at its most considered."e; [Quote]
