<DIV><b>A thief targets an amateur theatrical group, and murder follows in his wake</b></div><DIV><BR>Producing a Gilbert &amp; Sullivan opera requires a special kind of madness, and the Kelling family is large enough and peculiar enough to undertake an entire company by themselves. For years now, Sarah Kelling&rsquo;s Aunt Emma has supervised these annual productions&mdash;from <i>The Pirates of Penzance</i> to <i>The Mikado</i>&mdash;and this year she has invited her cast of relatives to rehearse <i>The Sorcerer</i> in her stately mansion. The show is nearly ready when a team of burglars drugs the cast and crew to make off with a priceless portrait.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>Theft or no theft, Aunt Emma insists the show must go on. Even when one of the cast dies suddenly, she finds a replacement and continues rehearsal. But when Sarah begins to suspect the actor was murdered, it becomes clear that dear Aunt Emma may be in danger of taking her final bow.</div>
