The Zig Zag Girl
In post-war Brighton, magician Max Mephisto grapples with a grisly murder that echoes his old stage act. When DI Edgar Stephens, his former wartime comrade, seeks his help, Max is drawn into a world where illusion and reality blur. As more victims appear, the duo must confront their shared past to unmask a killer with a flair for the theatrical. Griffiths weaves a spellbinding tale of friendship, magic, and murder that kept me guessing until the final, heart-stopping reveal.
