Absorbing . . . Another great series. --San Jose Mercury News "Clever, immensely likeable." --Wall Street Journal "Excellent . . . Evoking both the St. Mary Mead of Agatha Christie and the theater world of Ngaio Marsh." --Booklist It's Christmastime in Brighton, and the city is abuzz about a production ofAladdin starring Max Mephisto. But the holiday cheer is lost on DI Edgar Stephens. He's investigating the murder of two children, Annie and Mark, who were strangled to death in the woods and left alongside a trail of candy--a horrifying scene eerily reminiscent of "Hansel and Gretel." Edgar has plenty of leads to investigate. Annie, a dark child, wrote gruesome plays based on the Grimms' fairy tales. Does the key to the case lie in her unfinished final script? Or does the macabre staging of Annie's and Mark's deaths point to the theater and the capricious cast of characters performing inAladdin? Once again Edgar enlists Max's help in penetrating the shadowy world of the theater. But is this all just classic misdirection?
