The delectable Phryne Fisher meets Lin Chung. On her way to the gala performance of Gilbert and Sullivan's Ruddigore, Phryne Fisher takes a short cut and finds herself mixed up in a street brawl. Dealing summarily with the attackers, Phryne rescues a handsome Chinese and his grandmother. Brushing down her dress, she continues to the theatre where the last thing she expected that night was a bizarre death onstage. What can'the outrageous plot of Ruddigore, with its ghosts, ancestors and confusion of identities, have to do with the Chinese community of Little Bourke St - or with the performers of the play? Phryne is drawn into a backstage world of rivalries and legends and enlists the help of the delicious Chinese magician, adept at showing an impassive face while practising ancient customs behind the'scenes. What is reality? What is theatre? Phryne must solve puzzles within puzzles as murder treads the boards.
