Pauline dreams
In the early morning darkness in the Southern Alps of New Zealand, a young woman runs away from a lakeside estate and into the mountains. She has blood on her hands; she has left behind a dead body, the remnants of a corporate Christmas party, a collage of evidence implicating her in murder. As dawn breaks she tries to plot a path to save herself. Outside the company politics, Quentin Edwards finds her trail. He is a nobody from Christchurch suburbs, a minor congregant from a local evangelical church that is expanding internationally. Quentin believes in the girl’s innocence; he is led out of the South Island high country to the deserts of North America, the casinos and highways. He is led into violence and death; he is hunted by the law and by the corrupt. In his world that has been turned upside-down, he dreams of victory over evil, salvation.

It's a story of negotiating for performance halls and performers' payments, of hand-copying legible scores and individual parts for over 120 performers, of finding financiers, as well as space and time for rehearsals. Importantly, it is also a story of the relationship between Beethoven and the musicians...
