In nineteenth-century Venice, a young woman’s marriage to an illusionist hides secrets
that go deeper than his spectacular acts. The stage is set for transformation in a
mesmerizing short story by the New York Times bestselling author of The Lost
Apothecary.
In 1820s Venice, world-renowned magician Oscar Van Hoff confounds sold-out crowds with his
astounding manifestations. Even his beautiful wife and assistant, Olivia, is mystified. Her job is to
smile and recite her lines—onstage and in society. But the thankless routine is bringing out her
rebellious side. Then, on the eve of what promises to be Oscar’s greatest performance yet, Olivia
uncovers a secret with the power to shatter all her husband’s illusions. Now the finale belongs to her.
