London 1838 the controversial practice of Mesmerism with its genuine practitioners and its fraudulent chancers has hypnotised the city. Miss Cordelia Preston a beautiful ageing outofwork actress terrified of returning to the poverty of her childhood suddenly emerges as a Lady PhrenoMesmerist. In her candlelit Bloomsbury basement she learns to harness her talent and to finally look towards the future. But success is fragile when you have a past filled with secrets. On a wintry moonlit night a body is found in Bloomsbury Square and what began as an audacious subterfuge erupts into a scandal. Cordelias past is revealed bringing not only heartache but terror and the mystery of a cloaked figure who waits for her in the shadowy London streets. «
