      About This Book

      J.P. Beaumont's teenaged daughter Kelly has run off--and her tracks have led the sober-but-struggling sleuth to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. But in addition to one very headstrong offspring, there is something else waiting for Beau backstage: a case of cold-blooded murder.

      The victim is an acquaintance--a sleazy rival p.i. brutally butchered, supposedly by the Festival's current young Juliet...though Beau has his doubts. But the Second Act is about to open with a second corpse and a touch of kiddie porn--leaving Beau center stage in a heart-stopping tragedy of revenge, deception and death.
