Newly arrived from New Zealand and in need of funds, Martyn Tarne takes a job as a dresser to the Vulcan theaterâs leading lady. This provides her with a ringside seat to the backstage circus and the eventual murder that occurs on opening night. Inspector Alleyn is soon called to solve the murder and inject a needed dose of pragmatism, but the novelâs greatest pleasure lies in the characterizations of the theatrical âtypesâ Ngaio Marsh knew so well. Intro -- CHAPTER ONE Martyn at the Vulcan -- CHAPTER TWO In a Glass Darkly -- CHAPTER THREE First Dress-Rehearsal -- CHAPTER FOUR Second Dress-Rehearsal -- CHAPTER FIVE Opening Night -- CHAPTER SIX Performance -- CHAPTER SEVEN Disaster -- CHAPTER EIGHT After-Piece -- CHAPTER NINE The Shadow of Otto Brod -- CHAPTER TEN Summing Up -- CHAPTER ELEVEN Last Act.
