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 theatre impresario. 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.
When Lydia catches wind of what Emma and Sam are up to, she 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 the trail. The clues point to a criminal targeting the old music-hall crew. How long will it be before that trail leads straight back to Max ?
