Summary |
New York, 1942: Willowjean "Will" Parker is a scrappy circus runaway whose knife-throwing skills have just saved the life of private investigator, Lillian Pentecost. Lillian wants to hire Will to be her right-hand woman. Will is to receive a salary, room and board, and training in Lillian's very particular art of investigation. Three years later: Abigail Collins was found bludgeoned to death with a crystal ball following a Halloween party at her home; her body in the same chair where her husband shot himself the year before-- in a locked room. |
