REVIEW FROM BOOKS FOR HER:
When policeman Virgil Holt takes the illusionist and murderess extraordinaire Amazing Arden into custody, she has story to tell, and one night to do it. Not everything is as it seems in this engaging twist on a whodunit, complete with a hint of the supernatural and flashbacks to the past that slowly flesh out the backstory and keep the reader guessing and wanting more.
