Maria Black, M.A., Principal of Roseway College for Young Ladies, does not expect to come face to face with murder in her favorite cinema, when a stranger seated in Number 11 on Row A is found to be dead--shot through the head with a copper bullet! The baffling crime enables her to take on her role of detective and become, once again, Black Maria--the tireless crime solver. Determined to get to the root of the mystery, she works side by side with the stolid Inspector Morgan, local police chief. Together they follow a tangled trail that takes them behind the scenes of a cinema, examining the lives of hardworking folk who strive to maintain the entertainment industry--and eventually leads them into the recesses of a ruthless killer's dark mind. Another riveting classic British mystery torn from the pages of the pulps.
