Book description
At a sell-out festival of magicians in Manhattan, in front of a live
audience and eight million television viewers, a death-defying trick
goes tragically wrong. Detective Sergeant Kathy Mallory was convinced
that this was murder, and a murder which, mysteriously, might be
connected with the death of a woman half a century ago.'O'Connell
gradually performs the magic of a master storyteller, exposing the
lonely heart of Mallory and the vengeance of a killer. Strange and
mysterious, Mallory's fifth outing takes the reader to places no other
crime writer visits. It's a trip worth making.' Val McDermid
