Piper Haydn Piano

Murder Goes Solo Summary

A showcase piece for her big event. A musical instrument turned improvised coffin. A deadly sour note that may leave her playing a dirge.

Piper Haydn’s nerves are stretched to the max. Fuming that she still hasn’t received the Steinway she ordered, the academy owner is in a panic that her student recitals will be ruined. But her relief at the piano’s last-minute delivery turns to horror when she finds the corpse of her ex-fiancé stuffed inside.

Distraught that everything could go discordant so quickly, she leans on the kindness of friends as they herd the frightened kids outside only to find the cops already sniffing around. And after the chief of police tells her they’re attending a bomb threat and not a murder, things only get worse when she admits knowing the victim.

Can Piper find the killer and bring the case to a compelling coda?
