However, victory is bittersweet as the company is soon faced with dissolution and the loss of their theatre; were it not for one of the company’s rising stars. After acquiring a new benefactor, the company plan to build their own theatre. However, before they have the chance to find out who this guardian angel is, one of the group is found brutally murdered.

Chapter Mix Up Still Exists

This is a solid entry in the Westfield's Men series. If you've enjoyed the others, you'll enjoy this one, too. The character name, "Mother Pigbone" is worth the price of admission on its own. Unfortunately, the chapter mixup other reviewers have noted has not been cleared up. The beginning of Chapter 10 should be at the end of the chapter. An unfortunate place for a mixup ,as it puts the murder in the wrong spot.

So good

The troop continues to have problems with problems looming over. A murder and a journey to find the culprit. Excellent narration. Love this series
