A classic Ngaio Marsh novel in which she more than lives up to her reputation as a crime writer of intelligence and style. It was planned as an act of charity: a new piano for the parish hall, an amusing play to finance the gift. But its execution was doomed when Miss Campanula sat down to play. A chord was struck, a shot rang out and Miss Campanula was dead. A case of sinister infatuation for the brilliant Chief Detective-Inspector Alleyn.

the 5 star review is keeping in mind loving the gendre, mysteries written in the mid-twentieth century. if this is your forte, this book by Marsh is at the top of the heap. great characterizations of Englisn villagers in a by-gone era, clever plot, and a hero you can admire.
