#2 Dr. Josephine Plantæ Paradoxes. An Italian opera star spouts strange verses and collapses onstage during the final act of Romeo and Juliet. Dr. Josephine Reva is in the audience and rushes to render aid. The poison appears to be Belladonna, a plant with deadly black berries. After the Chief Detective uncovers plots to oust President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Josephine suspects there's more to the story.
She enlists her friends and follows the opera stars aboard the luxury ocean liner the SS Rex to Italy to spy. Suspects abound, including a shocking fashionista, a surreal artist, a cardinal and priest carry a saint's relics, a mysterious Mussolini official, a British lord, and the talented but narcissistic opera divas and dons. Also along is a handsome paramour—is romance on the horizon for Josephine, if she can survive the trip?
Josephine and her friends must hurry to solve these Belladonna crimes with deeper roots, before the ship docks in Fascist Italy and it's too late.
