When the charred remains of Rupert Millington are found inside a burning effigy, no one knows how they got there, but there are plenty of rumours about whodunnit. Detective Tess Fox and her con-artist sister Sarah Jacobs have a knack for solving impossible crimes. They’re confident they have the skills to unmask the true killer. But will this puzzling mystery prove beyond even their talents?

When DI Tess Fox arrives at her first murder scene there are already two big problems. First, the victim was thrown from the balcony of an apartment locked from the inside. Second, Tess knows the victim, and a clue left at the scene means the killer knows that too. Only one person knows about Tess’s link to the victim and has the skills and criminal background to mastermind a locked-room murder. But Tess’s half-sister Sarah is a con-artist, not a killer. And Tess is going to need her expertise if she’s ever going to crack the case.
