Intrigue, passion, and murder surround the suspicious
disappearance of famed Philadelphia financier Lemuel Beale
in the winter of 1842. As his daughter and only child,
Martha searches for her father. She begins to develop a
romantic attachment to Thomas Kelman, an assistant to the
mayor who's been assigned to the case. Kelman has also been
investigating the ritual slayings of several young women; a
likely suspect appears to be the renowned conjurer and
clairvoyant Eusapio Paladino. Could there be a connection
between the two cases?
