The Malevolent Comedy

eAudiobook
Lord Westfield's Men the most successful troupe in London and a prime target for jealousy and resentment are plagued by a series of practical jokes. But when one of their actors is murdered the humour turns distinctly sour. Appalling events continue: Lawrence Firethorn actor-manager is stalked by a mysterious lady; the sole copy of “The Malevolent Comedy” - the company’s new play - is stolen; their leading apprentice is abducted and there is an attempt on the life of Lord Westfield their patron. It's soon clear that someone more vicious than a practical joker is trying to destroy the troupe and that Nicholas Bracewell the resourceful book holder has an almighty struggle to save his beloved company from certain demise.
