Long retired from the operatic stage, the famous soprano, Tryphosa Swan, is still a force to be reckoned with.

An unexpected clue prompts her to confide in her only close friend, Marianne, who advises her to let sleeping dogs lie.

But Tryphosa has never taken advice and hires a genealogist with unexpected results.

Her uneasy relationship with her two daughters deteriorates, and when, in an act of pique, she decides to change her will yet again, the grim spectre of Death appears.

And the killing doesn't stop.-4 women, 2 men
