Rezensionen

Peter Duluth, New York’s youngest theatrical producer, is drinking his success and reputation down the drain. Realizing he needs to dry out and come down to Earth, he checks into a posh private sanitarium for “the cure.”

After a few weeks of drying out Dr. Lenz, the director, approaches Duluth asking for help on a problem. Lenz feels there may be an unwanted patient, who is causing disruption that is leading to tension among the patients and the possibility of them relapsing. There have been reports of voices being heard and other disturbing incidents.

Duluth takes on the task with the idea of it being a good distraction while he finishes out his cure. It isn’t just the patients who interest Duluth, there are also members of the staff.

When murder rears its ugly head, Duluth really has some sharp turns to navigate as he sorts out who is really who.

Las vacaciones de iris Duluth en San Francisco con su esposo, Peter, tuvieron un comienzo desastroso: conseguir una habitación de hotel era casi imposible. Sin embargo, el gesto de la desconocida que les cedió su habitación no salvó la situación. El hallazgo del cuerpo asesinado de Eulalia Crawford convirtió la velada embriagadora en una noche macabra y Peter creía cada vez más que conocería la verdad y se libraría de las acusaciones...

El productos de Broadway Peter Duluth buscó consuelo en una botella después de la muerte de su esposa. Ahora, dos años después y desesperado por secarse, ingresa a un sanatorio con la esperanza de romper su dependencia de la bebida, pero la institución no le ofrece el descanso y la relajación que esperaba. Sucesos extraños y malévolos plagan el hospital y entre otros eventos inexplicables, Peter escucha su propia voz con una ominosa advertencia: habrá asesinato.

Peter Duluth decide montar una obra de teatro en Broadway. A los avatares propios del mundillo teatral se suman ciertas anormalidades: espectros en los espejos y la muerte de dos actores durante los ensayos. Ninguno de los integrantes del elenco tiene una buena coartada. Queda a cargo del propio Duluth y del médico de la compañía la tarea de echar luz sobre estos misterios.
