Description
An aristocrat attempts a daring locked-room illusion on live television to save his ancestral home from debt, only for the trick to end in murder. Lord Redmire vanishes before the cameras, then reappears moments later, dead with a knife in his back. DCI Jim Oldroyd, present as a special guest, is baffled by a crime that defies logic.
As Oldroyd and DS Stephanie Johnson delve into the case, they uncover a host of suspects, each with a motive to resent the eccentric lord. But the impossible nature of the crime—how could anyone enter or exit a sealed room?—plagues the investigation. When the sole confidant of the illusion's secret is also murdered, the mystery deepens, leaving Oldroyd and Johnson to confront not only who is responsible and why, but the baffling question of how.
