She finds, however, that the whole cast has been upset by Elfrieda's young protege Melanie, who seems to have an undue influence on their mentor and yet is clearly a juvenile delinnquent. When Melanie disappears, Tessa and the and the others are convinced she has stolen much of the theatre's cash - but could she also be responsible for Elfrieda's sudden and mysterious death?"
