'The plotting is excellent, with admirable narrative drive . an engaging and entertaining read' Historical Novels Review

London, December 1906. The capital glitters with Christmas lights and festive crowds, yet on Piccadilly something far darker stirs. Beneath Frank Dicksee's celebrated painting of Romeo and Juliet at the Royal Academy lies the body of a young woman - drowned elsewhere and carefully staged, and with echoes also of Shakespeare's tragic Ophelia ?

With Scotland Yard baffled, the Museum Detectives Daniel and Abigail Wilson are called in once more. Drawn into the intertwined worlds of art and theatre, they must unravel a deadly puzzle of illusion and murder before the season of goodwill is shattered by another death.

Perfect for fans of Mark Ellis and T.E. Kinsey

Readers love Jim Eldridge:

'The sense of time and place created is perhaps my favourite aspect of these books, and whilst I thoroughly enjoy the mystery behind the murders, which are often very visceral, despite the cosy nature of the books, I love feeling as if I am walking alongside the characters, smelling, seeing, hearing, feeling and tasting everything they are.'

'Well-written and entertaining historical mystery.'

' I fully lost myself in from the opening chapter. Memorable characters, atmosphere galore, and masterful plotting all combine into an impeccable mystery.'

'Great story, well-paced and keeps you guessing.'
