Typical Macleod sly humor. This Sarah Kelling and Max Bittersohn mystery has very little of Max, since he is off in Europe someplace. Sarah, helping Aunt Emma's theatre troupe stage a Gilbert & Sullivan opera, is forced to investigate the mysterious murder of a cast member all by herself. Of course, we get tied up in various doings of the Kelling clan, some typically wonderfully weird cast members, and sundry others. A valuable family portrait gets stolen, and that complicates matters more. I like the Peter Shandy series better, but Macleod is always worth the reading.
