A brilliant homage to the great Alfred Hitchcock!

This is such a fun and brilliantly written satire, a wonderful mystery with so many Hitchcock references, reading it is Hitchcock heaven! Its humor is ingenious, rife with witty quips and amusing dialogue, and fits well in the Hitchcock theme! I love all the characters, particularly G, the darling damsel in distress, graceful, beautiful, and hinting at a naivety that's just absolutely charming.  The Inspector, who is wise, curious, and patient, is the kind of man who would make a person better just for spending a little bit of time with him. No spoilers, but the ending is the kind of twist that left me not only surprised, but beaming with happiness. I will be listening to this again and often, and if I ever have a chance to see it played out live on stage, I'll consider myself a very lucky girl!
