What to expect
They say music soothes the savage beast, but in Gloamington, it's more likely to summon one.
When Gloamington hosts its first talent show, the stage is set for more than just performances. It becomes the perfect venue for murder when a famous pop star dies.
Malcolm Fawkes and Ella Bloom must navigate a maze of suspects thick with jealousy and ambition. From bitter contestants to obsessed admirers, everyone wanted something from the manipulative diva.
The pop star rose to fame on the backs of her competition and the broken hearts of her obsessed fans. But this time, she became the casualty.
As they search for the killer, Ella also tries to hone her mysterious powers, and Malcolm desperately seeks the one memory that could restore everything. But as magical talents spiral out of control and old grudges take the spotlight, solving this case might cost them everything.
Can they unmask a murderer before someone else hits their final note? Or will the killer's encore claim another victim?
