A chance encounter with the theatre world brings an unexpected turn of fortune to Martyn Tarne's life. From her far-off homeland in New Zealand, she has come to London seeking work as a dresser for a struggling theatre company. Her latest opportunity is the humble job of assistant to the leading lady at the Vulcan Theatre.
On the night of the eagerly anticipated opening performance, Martyn's fortunes take an unexpected turn. But for one member of the cast, the evening will prove to be their last.
A gripping mystery unfolds as Martyn becomes embroiled in a complex web of relationships and motives within the theatre company. Will she uncover the truth behind the tragic events that unfold on this fateful night?
