As a concert violinist, Devin Prescott could make music to soothe the savage beast, but as an amateur sleuth, she was in dire need to rehearsal. Devin knew something was rotten in the state of Arizona when her uncle, a scientist with a revolutionary garbage-control invention, vanished without a trace.

Tracking down Eli Wingate proved to be the challenge of Nick Lang's checkered career. Sure, he knew how to make the building’s security system sing his name when break-ins proved necessary. But while he was ready to play a duet, Devin was used to playing solo...

As Devin and Nick ran out of leads, they could hear the fat lady tuning up. Eli could be dead, and the finale was just around the corner. Would it be a standing ovation or the funeral march?
