Opis

In the sequel to Down in the Dumps, Polly finds herself touring as set and puppet designer for a small rural theatre company. When the stage manager mysteriously fails to appear for the first rehearsal, Polly has to step in and do the job. The full-time employment is welcome, but the work is hell. Dealing with a cast of viciously feuding actors, a mysterious practical joker whose tricks are decidedly gruesome, and a deepening conviction that the stage manager has been murdered, Polly finds her new job more than a little stressful. Where s the stage manager s body? Is somebody really out to get the star of the show? Will the show open with all of the cast still breathing? The local police won t show an interest, so the intrepid Polly investigates alone, unwittingly carrying out the murderer s master plan, which almost ends in curtains for everybody."
