Product Description
Synopsis
Marc, a 50-ish opera queen with a habit of breaking everything he touches and Paul, a young, ditzy dancer and circuit boy, are an odd pairing as friends. As detectives, however, they are one small step from disaster. Why these two feel the need to investigate the death of Jennifer Burke, a rising opera star (or at least she was rising, until she plunged off the edge of a cliff), is almost a bigger mystery than whether the diva actually was pushed off the cliff. Hot on the trail of clues that lead to all the wrong answers, our energetically inefficient sleuths investigate a sharp-tongued music critic, a way over-the-hill prima donna, and a formidable drag artiste before accidentally stumbling over the truth. Set in the vibrant gay scene of Sydney, Australia, One Dead Diva, the first in an enormously popular series of comic mysteries featuring Marc and Paul, is a wonderfully madcap and funny novel that juggles murder, mystery, farce, social satire, and even romance without missing a beat.
