From Amazon:

It is 1980 and Jojo Evans is living the dream. Perfect job, perfect man, perfect life – but is it all an illusion? Jojo doesn’t think so – she cannot believe her good fortune, working as magician’s assistant to her charismatic boyfriend, The Incredible Nico, and sharing his luxurious flat is a far cry from her life in a squat working as a street performer. Best friend, Annie Daley, isn’t so sure. Jojo seems bewitched by this new boyfriend, and Annie doesn’t trust him. When Jojo receives an anonymous note warning her to keep away from Nico, the friends suspect it’s from a jealous fan. But the threats that follow cannot be so easily dismissed, and Jojo fears for her life. Annie volunteers to investigate, and enters the world of the Golden Globe Theatre, where nothing is as it seems. As tensions mount to a career-making show finale, things spiral out of control. Will Jojo and Annie see through the smoke and mirrors in time to save their lives, or is this to be their last act?

My Review:

Talk about suspense and a lot more drama in the theaters having real performances. First, there is an old and historic theater from the Victorian Era. We have Nico and his girlfriend, Jojo, and she is his assistant with a magic show. Nico is a rather jealous type of person and quite controlling. Actually, there is magic going with many from within and outside the theater. I felt like I was Jojo as she sailed, in a manner of speaking. Not giving that part away. Best friends are strained by Nico and his controlling manner, yet it’s within those with the show that more treachery ensues to a climax of where is she, will they live, both ladies have not escaped the fire yet, who is to blame???? All the intricacies I leave for future readers. Five shiny gold stars!
