Ngaio Marsh wisely set this last novel in her mystery series in the world of theater. It was in this setting that she produced some of her best work, and Light Thickens is among her best. This time, tragedy strikes during a production of Macbeth, reportedly a cursed play Marsh herself had staged many times in her career as a theater producer and director.
