Flora, a young ballet dancer, offered a job at a prestigious private opera house in the grounds of a ducal palace, finds herself surrounded by bitchiness and rivalries both professional and amorous. When an attempted murder occurs, an aristocratic detective is assigned to the case because of its high profile. His impartiality is threatened by his own connections to the ducal family. The case seems to get more and more complicated as further murders happen. Understandably, there are a great many suspects, cross-examination of whom is made difficult by their poor command of the English language. It is the interference of another of the dancers, a busy-body who hears and relays all the gossip, that eventually assists the police to solve the case.
