Death at the Opera: (Death in the Wet) Paperback - 2005

by Gladys Mitchell; Tom Schantz (Editor); Enid Schantz (Editor)


From the publisher

Mrs. Beatrice Lestrange Bradley is asked by the headmaster of a progressive private school to pose as a faculty member in order to determine if the death of an instructor was murder or suicide. First published in 1934 (it was titled Death in the Wet in the U.S.), Death at the Opera was filmed for Mystery with Diana Rigg as Mrs. Bradley. Readers need not worry, however, since the book and the television program bear little resemblance to each other, other than title, the name of one victim, a scene from The Mikado and, of course, the presence of Mrs. Bradley.

Description:
Boulder, CO, U.S.A.: Rue Morgue Press, 2005. 1st prtg. A fine, unread copy of the trade paperback. Mrs. Bradley is summoned when a faculty-student production of "The Mikado" at a progressive English school turns deadly in this 1934 classic. When Miss Ferris drowned in a wash basin duriqg a perfonnance of The Mikado at the Hillmaston Coeducational Day School, the police ruled it a suicide. The school's headmaster wasn't so sure. He called in that grand dame of detection, the psychoanalyst-sleuth Mrs. Beatrice Lestrange Bradley. The innocuous Miss Ferris wasn't popular among her fellow teachers, several of whom feared she would expose their guilty secrets. But these transgressions, for the most part, appeared too inconsequential to end in murder.
