Elizabeth II’s coronation is looming, but DI Edgar
Stephens is busy investigating the death of a local
fortuneteller. Meanwhile, his old pal, the magician Max
Mephisto, is rehearsing for his television debut, a
Coronation Day variety show. But upon hearing that their
wartime commander, Colonel Cartwright, has been found
dead in his flat, the two men join forces to find out
what happened.
While Max is stuck in rehearsals, Edgar finds himself
heading to New York, hot on the trail of a mesmerist he’s
sure has valuable information for them—and his trusty
sergeant, Emma, investigates some important leads at
home. As the clock ticks down to Coronation Day, the team
must scramble to keep Max’s small-screen debut from
ending in a dangerously explosive finale.
