Trouble is brewing in the quaint Shenandoah Valley town of Crooked Run. Clarence Jackson, the persnickety choir director, has a knack for making practice less than joyful. And with a state singing competition looming, members are becoming disgruntled.
Local authorities are left baffled when murder strikes. Newly hired assistant minister Jane Cartwright and retired Scotland Yard Detective Jasper Reaves must help unmask the killer before the choir's next performance becomes their final act. Can they unravel the tangled threads of deceit in time, or will the harmony of Crooked Run be forever shattered?
