Detective Alleyn has been invited to attend the opening of a play in which the pivotal scene involves two of the characters (why had their roles been reversed?) fighting over a gun. The gun goes off, the curtain closes, and one of the actors is actually dead -- the brat relative of the producer.
Who took the blanks out and put real bullets in, and why?
Sometimes the answer is obvious, some times not. It doesn't help when everyone hated the victim.
