Death Masque

McCabe and Cody, Book 8

De: Dan Andriacco

Narrado por: Tom Lennon

Small town controversies can be murder.
When a newcomer to Erin, Ohio, proposes to tear down the historic Bijou Theater and erect in its place a boutique hotel, Sebastian McCabe adds “civic activist” to a long resume that already includes magician, mystery writer, professor, and amateur sleuth.
With the strategic help of brother-in-law Jeff Cody, Mac launches a far-reaching campaign to “Save the Bijou.” The issue becomes highly political when three eccentric mayoral candidates stake out their positions - which one of them switches after a hefty campaign contribution.
“The plot machinations of grand opera seem positively guileless by comparison!” Mac cries. Can homicide be far behind?
The opera comparison is a natural one, for the new Erin Opera Company is staging an original work with a Mardi Gras theme. As murder strikes again, this time back stage, Sebastian McCabe becomes aware that many of the actors in this real-life drama are wearing metaphorical masks as well.
Lynda Teal, Jeff's wife, records much of Mac's sleuthing for a podcast series, never imagining that the most dramatic audio of the concluding episode will come from the murderer.

McCabe and Cody ride again

Murder at the opera. An entertaining McCabe an Cody story with great characters, well written mystery that kept me listening. I like this series and it keeps getting better. Tom Lennon does an excellent job with the narration. I received a complimentary copy of the audio and am leaving a honest and voluntary review.

Right before your eyes

A small college in a small town in Ohio, has a local group performing an Opera, when a murder occurs on stage.With all the self serving politicians and every little shop along way. Very enjoyable story with Sherlock Holmes overtones.Loved it!

Interesting Mystery

Another interesting story with McCabe and Cody, though it has more Cody than McCabe. The characters are very likable. The performance is excellent.
