Summary
The living and the dead have always spoken equally to Lucy, and she doesn’t know where to focus any more.
When disaster strikes at Jacob’s Travelling Circus, Lucy flees to London, where she stumbles upon the world famous Fairfax Carnival and falls back on an old con that her mother made her do as a child; swindling punters as a fake psychic.
Lucy is content to blend into the background and be just another carnie, but when Annabel Ward, the trapeze star, disappears overnight, Lucy is forced into the spotlight in a role she told herself she’d never do again. Add to that Lockwood's unhappiness about her getting a star act over him, and stopping the inspector investigating Annabel’s disappearance ratting her whereabouts to Jacobs; Lucy’s too distracted to even notice that the voices in her head are leading her right to the heart of the problem.
She can’t ignore the signs forever, and when the mysterious figure lurking inside her crystal ball starts giving warnings about George and the Carnival’s secretary, Joplin, she and Lockwood must work together to figure out the dark secret behind the carnival’s popular attraction; the Hall Of Mirrors.
