About this listen
Illusionist turned sleuth Joseph Spector investigates a sinister conundrum at a 1930s theatre in this thrilling mystery audiobook from Tom Mead, author of Death and the Conjuror, one of Publishers Weekly's Mysteries of the Year 2022.
When Edmund Ibbs, a young lawyer, defends a woman accused of shooting her husband dead, he finds himself drawn into a web of conspiracy and murder.
Soon, Ibbs himself is accused of complicity in a killing, when a corpse unexpectedly appears as part of a magic act in a crowded theatre.
Also present is Joseph Spector, former illusionist turned highly respected amateur sleuth. Spector begins to investigate the mystery, but when a second body is discovered later the same night, all the evidence points to Ibbs being guilty.
With a host of hangers-on having something to hide, can Spector find the true culprit, or will he and Inspector Flint of Scotland Yard conclude that Ibbs is guilty after all?
©2023 Tom Mead (P)2023 Tantor MediaThis is the 2nd Tom Mead title I have enjoyed and it serves up the same fare e.g. locked-room puzzles set in distant late 1930s milieus. This one has plenty re the mechanics of illusions too which are certainly intriguing, and an evil criminal mastermind, who I hope will feature in other books.
