I Married a Zombie may have flopped in its day, but it's got a devoted cult following. Jaine is delighted when one of those rabid fans hires her as script doctor for his new play based on the show-- until she reads the awful script, and meets Misty, the actress who'll be playing Cryptessa's role. Misty doesn't display any talent, but can certainly act the diva, demanding a special smoothie every day at 3pm. When someone spikes Misty's signature drink with a fatal shot of rat poison, the cast of suspects extends far beyond the theater. -- Adapted from jacket.

Sequel to: Death of a gigolo.
