When Angel, the wife of magician Dex Devereaux, mysteriously vanishes on a live TV talent show, journalist and wannabe investigator Clare Deyes cannot resist trying to work out what happened. But a week later, when Angel reappears dead during the show's next round, Clare is certain she is out of her depth.
Clare soon realises only one person can help: the brilliant, brittle Mara Knight - magic consultant, psychologist and wife of the world famous illusionist Travers - whose husband's disappearance is still unexplained.
Can Clare and Mara together solve the puzzle of Angel's death before the talent show's live final, when they are sure someone close to Angel has something even more extreme planned?

The Sherlock Holmes stories meet Jonathan Creek in this fast-paced, twisty mystery with a generous peppering of pathos and humour. Perfect for fans of Richard Osman and Elly Griffiths, The Magician's Wife is the first in a brand new series from internationally published author (and real-life magician's wife) Lora Jones.
