Midori Bishop's life is hitting all the right notes. She has her dream job playing violin in the Point Grey Philharmonic Orchestra, and is embarking on a new relationship with the symphonyโs hot maestro. But when Midori finds a cellist strangled to death during a rehearsal, the maestro soon becomes the number-one suspect and Midori his only supporter.
Midori sets out to prove the maestroโs innocence, but soon discovers that he and many others have secrets they would rather keep hidden. For someone who was only a ringerโa temporary member of the orchestraโthe dead cellist had certainly made a lot of enemies. And as the investigation takes Midori closer to the truth, the killer gears up for a grand finaleโwith Midori as the intended victim.
