- Synopsis
- When strange pranks are played on the Pirelli Youth Orchestra, trumpet player Sizzle--Prudence Szyznowski--and tuba player Splat--Arthur Hadley Reavis Pauling III--have a baffling mystery to investigate. Who put on the rehearsal room sprinklers during Handel's Water Music Suite? Why was Splat's tuba packed with fish when he played Finlandia? Worst of all, who set off the firecrackers in the case containing Kevin Lim's violin--a quarter-million dollar Stradivarius he'd borrowed from his famous father? Thumbing their noses in the face of danger, Sizzle and Splat pursue their suspects. The quick-witted and witty sleuths know they'd better solve the mystery before the prankster plays a final joke--and gets the last laugh on them. Sizzle has an extra mystery on her hands. Splat says he's not dating, so why is he seen at expensive restaurants on weekends. How will the investigation be effected when the pair's amazingly unique parents become involved? Wisecracks never let up in this entertaining and zany book about the team that debuted in the popular Sizzle & Splat. A must read for mystery and classical music fans of all ages written by a musician who knows musicians from the inside out. Much of the story is funny and interesting on the surface, but a deeper, more challenging thread runs through this book.
