Description: Daisy Dalrymple and Scotland Yard inspector Alec Fletcher enjoy a splendid performance of Verdi's *Requiem*, featuring her neighbor's sister Bettina, until the poisoned singer suddenly breathes her last. The diva was difficult and provoked many enemies -- a philandering tenor, a burly Russian bass, and her own turbulent vocal coach husband.
