A Mask of Shadows, Hardcover

Descriere

But before the darlings of London theater--Henry Irving and Ellen Terry--take their acclaimed Macbeth to the Edinburgh stage, terror treads the boards: A grisly message is found smeared across the cobbles in blood, foretelling someone's demise As the bloody prophecies continue to come to fruition, Edinburgh's own beloved pair of detectives--""Nine-Nails"" Mc Gray and Inspector Ian Frey--enter the scene. Frey scoffs at what he believes is a blatant publicity stunt, while Mc Gray is convinced that the supernatural must be at play As they scrutinize the key players, they discover that Irving, Terry, and their peculiar, preoccupied assistant, Bram Stoker, all have reasons to kill, or be killed. But one thing is clear: by occult curse or human hand, death will take a bow the night the curtain rises.
