Perhaps I may shamelessly recommend one. It's a murder-mystery called BLOOD ON THE TRACKS.
But not just any rock superstar is knocking on heaven's door. The murdered rock legend is none other than Bob Dorian, an enigmatic, obtuse, inscrutable, well, you get the picture...
Suspects? Tons of them. The only problem is they're all characters in Bob's songs.
