McBride: Requiem

Classical violinist Ava Fletcher (Josie Davis, CSI: Miami) is the twenty-five-year-old first-chair diva of the LA Symphony. A darling of the critics, adored by the public, and a Sunday Arts Section cover girl, she has everything a budding young talent could ask for. So what’s a virtuoso like Ava doing with an enemy? That’s what McBride (Emmy winner John Larroquette, The John Larroquette Show), one her biggest fans, asks when the sweetheart of the strings is found dead in her dressing room only minutes before curtain with blood on her multi-million-dollar Stradivarius. The high-profile crime is made all the more so given that her father is a powerful senator who wants the case closed and someone arrested ASAP—preferably his daughter’s fiancée, whom the senator sees as strictly second-rate.
