It was in the great fans rising and falling like the wings of hunting eagles, held by impassive servant girls, their thin white silks glowing in the firelight.

It was up to PC Tara Connor and the mysterious consultant Victoria Burton to crack the seemingly impossible case. Whatever you think the answer is, you won’t be right.
