"The theatre plays backdrop to romance and murder . . . Good reading." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
Newly arrived from New Zealand and in need of funds, Martyn Tarne takes a job as a dresser to the Vulcan Theater's leading lady. Along with a paycheck, this also 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 case and put a stop to all the drama . . .
"To my thinking, no other writer evokes 'the incense of the playhouse' or describes the technical details of stage production with the degree of authenticity that Dame Ngaio achieved in novels like Enter a Murderer, Killer Dolphin, Night at the Vulcan and Light Thickens." —Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times
"The brilliant Ngaio Marsh ranks with Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers." —Times Literary Supplement
Also published under the title Opening Night
