Complete story — includes the ending
The Northern California Symphony Orchestra comes under investigation when one of its first chair violinists, Eleanor Artega, is found shot to death at a bus stop. A single petal of a hydrangea flower is found at the crime scene. Investigations reveal that Eleanor was from a tough neighbourhood and had recently had a falling out with her controlling mother. Her mother had been Eleanor's manager and had forced Eleanor to get a restraining order against her gang member boyfriend. In the Orchestra, Eleanor's place is taken by the second chair violinist. Jane plants a rumour that the maestro was having an affair with Eleanor to reveal the real killer. Meanwhile, Cho has his hands full when he has to deal with Anthony Rome, a bright and talented young pickpocket.
