Sarah knows she shouldnt be here. The Kellings never did get invited back after that unfortunate incident when Madam Wilkins first opened her palatial museum to Bostons most critically outspoken Brahmins. But things have been quiet at Sarahs elegant Beacon Hill boarding house lately -- nobodys been murdered in months. Lodger Max Bittersohn has free passes to todays concert, and hes one man she finds hard to turn down. But then something falls past them from the floor above, and the oldest guard sprawls dead among the hyacinths.
