This thrilling historical mystery starring Mozart tells of friendship and
betrayal, and how music allows us to defy death—from the acclaimed author of
Death and the Maiden and The Suicide Museum.
In 1789 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart visits the grave of Johann Sebastian Bach in
Leipzig, looking for a sign, a signal, an answer to an enigma that has haunted
him since childhood: Was Bach murdered by a famous oculist? And years later, was
Handel a victim of the same doctor?
Allegro follows his investigation, from the salons of London to the streets of
Paris, recreating an enthralling and turbulent time, full of rogues and
brilliant composers, charlatans and presumptuous nobles. Running parallel to
this search is the rise of Mozart, his knowledge and fame, his trials and
losses.
