When the opportunity arises to win a collection of theatrical memorabilia for the Architrave Museum, Dittany Monk, her western-novel-writing husband Osbert, and the rest of the crew pull out all the stops to stage a play based on Service's poem "Dangerous Dan McGrew."
All of the denizens of Lobelia Falls are in top-notch form in this story, from Arethusa Monk, the Reigning Queen of Roguish Regency Romance, to Andy McNaster, the villainous innkeeper suddenly smitten by love.
My favorite of the series, a truly frothy confection of drama, humor and skullduggery.
