Killing in C Sharp<\/a><\/em> (2018) Alexia Gordon<\/a> (Gethsemane Brown)<\/p>\n

Kent reached out and laid a hand on her arm. \u201cDon\u2019t be nervous.\u201d <\/p>\n

Gethsemane patted Kent\u2019s hand. \u201cDon\u2019t worry, I\u2019m not.\u201d She\u2019d performed live all over the world and she taught teenaged boys. Nothing unnerved her.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But now ghost hunters have come to look for Eamon McCarthy, Venus James is in town to revise her book on Eamon’s death, and the composer Aed Devlin has returned to premier his opera about a vengeful Hungarian ghost. Killed by her family centuries earlier.<\/p>\n

The then-baroness, named Maja after the infamous legend\u2014\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cHow\u2019s that for tempting fate?\u201d Hardy whispered to Gethsemane. <\/p>\n

If Poe heard him, she ignored him. \u201c\u2014 decided to put an end to the shame. She practiced folk magic, and she modified her vengeful ancestor\u2019s curse. She decreed that if anyone ever wrote about, sang about, preached about, or publicly spoke about the Zolt\u00e1n family curse, they would die in the same way as that Zolt\u00e1n generation\u2019s eldest sons. She also swore a wasting sickness would claim the lives of any firstborn male who listened to or watched a performance of the doomed piece.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

These are fun reads, and I enjoyed the story, even as I had issues with the mystery. First, I didn’t quite get why the second murder needed to occur. If the murderer already had plans to leave the country and take up an assumed identity, then the second murder was unnecessary. <\/p>\n

And just felt rather mean, to be honest.<\/p>\n

Also, I keep finding quarantine books this year.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019ve canceled all classes until further notice. Activities, too. I don\u2019t want this thing to spread any further than it already has. St. Brennan\u2019s is under quarantine.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So fun, despite its problems.<\/p>\n
