One foggy San Francisco evening, florist Billy McGee and advice junior reporter Ben Hirsch are dressed to the nines for a night at the opera. Ben is filling in as a substitute music critic for the San Francisco Call to review the local premiere of an opera starring The Great Caruso and the brilliant soprano Adelina Siracusa. What begins as a thrilling evening of music and drama ends as a chilling evening of murder! Suspects are everywhere: four temperamental opera stars, a belittled Impresario, a baffled manager, and a French maid who can’t stop fainting. Only one person could have pulled off such an ingenious killing—someone from inside the opera company. Shadowing Billy’s ex-beau, Lieutenant Jim Draper of the San Francisco Police, the boys become immersed in the chaos backstage at the opera house and, before long, are in over their heads trying to prevent other murders from occurring—because they could be the next victims!”
