Publisher's Synopsis
No sooner has handsome, partially disabled Ned Savage moved into the apartment next door to Hugo Miller, than he is apparently murdered with a heavy candlestick to his head while he is collapsing into anaphylactic shock in his living room, due to a fungus that is commonly found on marijuana plants. The action happens in and around several productions of "Twelfth Night" in NYC and at a nearby Shakespeare festival. Hugo, Gabriele and Ruth travel to California to see a high-tech cannabis operation, to London to visit Ned's pregnant wife (a secret marriage), and to Istanbul to meet a famous author who has invested in Ned's career. Ned's sexuality and his pregnant wife's preferences aren't clear, and Gabriele Cortese is part of a love triangle involving both of them. But the keys to the solution are found on a stormy night filled with lightning and fools in New York City.
