The setting: Hollywood. The year: 1943.

When death strikes at the austere, castle-like home of Earl Falkoner, an erratic designer of Hollywood sets and a would-be playwright, his hired writers and hired help—not to mention his dogs, his massive bodyguards, and his lady friends—become enmeshed in a chesslike game. Who is the killer? Luckily Lieutenant Tuck, with the able assistance of policewoman Brigit, is on the case to sort out clues.
