Dressed To Kill (A Kate O'Donnell Mystery) - Plot & Excerpts
The noise was so intense that at first no one noticed the uniformed police officers crowding through the main entrance but when a sledge hammer smashed in the fire exit at the side of the stage, sending splinters of wood spraying on to the stage and the audience, the musicians stopped abruptly, instruments trailing into silence, and the audience cried out or gasped in panic as the decibels dropped and the entire room quickly fell silent. A uniformed officer climbed up on to the stage holding a document in his hand and was immediately accosted by a crimson-faced Stan Weston, trumpet in hand, demanding to know what the hell was going on. By this time some members of the audience were getting up from their tables and attempting to leave the club and were being forcibly restrained by officers manning all the doors. After a couple of men had been unceremoniously handcuffed, most of the rest subsided back into their place, complaining loudly but offering no resistance. ‘Ladies and gentlemen,’ the officer in charge shouted across the growing murmur of outrage.
