About

On opening night at Atlantic City's haunted Black Widow Theatre, brilliant young magician Lucy Moon finds a body inside the infamous sawing box that killed a performer decades earlier - a black rose clutched in her mouth. The rose terrifies Lucy for reasons she's never confessed, and she knows one thing for certain: the killer will strike again.

As she races through Atlantic City's shadowy underworld, Lucy must unmask a murderer who seems to know more about her past than she does. But when she falls for a charismatic magician who could be both the killer and the key to her own buried secrets, she realizes the truth may be the deadliest illusion of all.

To survive, Lucy must master the hardest trick yet: discovering who she really is.
