A magic show with death as the star guest...
A snow-bound and freezing London, December 1925
Posie Parker, London’s premier female Private Detective, is only just back in town when she receives an unexpected visitor.
The mysterious magician, Count Olli Onneri, pupil of the legendary American magician Harry Houdini, invites Posie to take part in the opening night of his show at the nearby Holborn Empire. She will be helping him with a ‘magic mirror’ trick, the like of which has never been seen before.
When Posie accepts - in the cynical hope of reviving her flagging public profile - she enters a world which is not just about pretty doves being pulled out of hats, but one in which real danger lurks.
In a case where nothing is quite as it seems, the long shadows of the past must be stripped away in order to get at the truth.
But sometimes, the truth can be devastating.
