M. J. Trow: Maxwell's Mask (UK 2007) From the Publisher: The autumn she came down from Oxford, there was something of a crisis in the Drama department at Leighford High. Mrs Carmichael was in danger of losing her baby and the Little Shop of Horrors was in danger of closing down. So Deena came back – just to help out. And people started dying. Oh, just tragic accidents of course – loose cables, carelessly placed ladders. Just minor health and safety issues, really. Somebody was killing the cast, and it wasn't Audrey II, the man-eating plant. DCI Henry Hall got to know the Arquebus Theatre quite well that summer. With his favourite DS, Jacquie Carpenter, expecting her own baby, and with murder treading the boards, Hall had his hands full. Especially when Deena's old Head of Sixth Form stumbled into the spotlight. You see, Deena's old Head of Sixth Form had a habit of solving murders… Mad Max is on his bike. M. J. Trow: Maxwell's Mask. Allison & Busby, ISBN: 0749081457 (April, 2007), 445 p., £6.99
