In Susanne Dunlap's The Musician's Daughter, Theresa Schurman's father, a violinist in the Prince of Hungary's orchestra, is murdered on Christmas Eve. His valuable violin is nowhere to be found. Theresa is unsatisfied with the explanation that her father fell victim to common robbers. She sets out to find the truth - and soon finds herself meddling in matters far above her head.Pros: Although she chooses to do some things that I would never do, Theresa is a pretty good person. I'm extremely fond of Zoltan.
Cons: The good guys sometimes resort to methods that, in my opinion, should only be used by bad guys. There is a steady stream of mild-to-moderate innuendo and slightly-more-than-innuendo through almost the entire book.
