Newly minted PI Emma Holmes and her partner Sam Collins are just settling into their business when they're chosen for a high-profile case: retired music-hall star Verity Malone hires them to find out who poisoned her husband, a theater impresario. Verity herself has been accused of the crime. The only hitch-the Brighton police are already on the case, putting Emma in direct competition with her husband, police superintendent Edgar Stephens. Soon Emma realizes that Verity's life intersects closely with her own-most notably in their mutual connection, Max Mephisto, who has returned to England from America with his children and famous wife, Hollywood star Lydia Lamont. Lydia, desperately bored in the countryside, catches wind of what Emma and Sam are up to and offers her services. What secret does Lydia know about Verity's past? The team of female PIs circle closer to the killer, with the Brighton police hot on their tail. The clues suggest they're looking for a criminal targeting the old music-hall crew. How long will it be before that trail leads straight back to Max? 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 $a Mephisto, Max $c (Fictitious character) $v Fiction. 600 10 $a Stephens, Edgar $c (Fictitious character) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women private investigators $z Brighton $z Brighton $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Magicians $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Poisoning $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Police $z Brighton $z Brighton $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Music-halls $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Electronic books. 651 0 $a Brighton (England) $x History $y 20th century $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Brighton (England) $x Social life and customs $v Fiction. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 800 1 $a Griffiths, Elly. $t Magic men mystery. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/14819786?utm_source=MARC $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/hpc_9780358419198_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20231206011926.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=40A18F0A940511EE938C1F5A49ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
