Description: The Victoriana is a lovely old theatre in the Frank Matcham style. It is an old music hall (with reputed ghost) and is situated opposite the pier in the seaside town of Fairbourne on the south coast of England. During the season of 1995 one of the actors is murdered in his dressing room some time between the matinee and the evening performance. Suspicion falls on each of the other actors and actresses in the small company, as well as on the murdered man's wife, who is more famous than her husband. Inspector Carding and Sergeant George Binns are called in to investigate.
