The Man Who Murdered Mozart
by Robert Walton and Barry N. Malzberg
In the late 21st century, frustrated violin player Howard Beasley and his six friends
make a plan to kidnap Mozart from his death bed, so that Beasley can get him to finish
his Requiem and thereby ride the crest of the ensuing admiration to becoming the
head of the world.
That question is beyond me. Try asking Mozart.
