Fenella Woods isn’t certain that following a traveling orchestra around England with police inspector Daniel Robinson is the sort of romantic vacation for which she was hoping. The tour is being led by one of Daniel’s former teachers, and apparently he couldn’t say no when she asked him to come along.

The tour doesn’t turn out to be quite what either of them were expecting, but they’re making the best of it, until they stumble across a dead body. There is no shortage of suspects as the police begin to investigate the entire orchestra as well as the tour group following it.

Will the local police inspector be interested in help from Daniel and Fenella? Can they work together to narrow down the list of suspects? With everyone from the orchestra and the tour stuck in Chester, can their vacation get any worse? If the police can find the killer, can Fenella talk Daniel into giving up on the orchestra tour and doing something, anything, else?
