Die Upon a Kiss
Barbara Hambly
It's 1835. The New Orleans streets glitter with masked revelers in
Carnival costumes. An even more brilliant display is promised at the
American Theatre, where impresario Lorenzo Belaggio has brought
Othello,
the opera, to town. But in the shadows of an alley outside the stage door,
Benjamin January is wounded as he rescues Bellaggio from attack. Can the
attempt have something to do with the opera itself - or is something more
insidious at work?
