Odd accidentsif they are accidentsremove, one by one, the sharp-tongued Production Assistant, the self-effacing script-writer, the hearty Floor Manager.

Theres no discernible pattern in all this, but Simon Bretts regular sleuth, the bit-player Charles Paris, is confidently on the trail of another mass murderer.
