Description
A diva is dead. The soprano in question, Charise Lee, was scarcely a star at the Washington National Opera, but when the aspiring singer is stabbed in the heart backstage during rehearsals, she suddenly takes center stage. Now the crime-fighting couple Mac Smith and his beloved wife, Annabel, are being pressured by the panicked theater board to unmask a killer. What they uncover is an increasingly complex case reaching far beyond Washington to a dark world of informers and terror alerts in Iraq, and climaxing on a fateful night at the opera attended by none other than the president himself.
