Tynworth's wife has vanished and his lordship wants her found - yet strangely doesn't seem especially keen on getting her back. When Travers walks into the case, he enters a hall of mirrors. In it are thoroughbred horses, their trainers, at least one man determined not to tell the truth . . . and a burnt corpse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe missing woman is a former crooner, and once again Travers must investigate the world of showbusiness on his way to discovering the truth.
