Rachel tries to be a good girl and consider others first, and she's never missed a deadline. Now her family is doing a vanishing act, her book on magic is a year late to the publishers, and she's taken to screaming in the car. Harry Houdini has always been her hero and companion, the artist of her freedom. With Harry by her side, Rachel can face anything. So why is he deserting her, just when she needs him most?
Her husband, Guido, has become maddeningly remote, and her daughter, Clara, has run away to Italy. From Florence, Clara sends news like mysterious puzzle pieces, forming a disturbing picture of Guido's past, exploding illusions the family have nourished all their lives. As Rachel's life slides out of control, her own history threatens to overwhelm her. Yet sometimes truth is the key to freedom, and what we do with it shapes our collapse or survival - and possibly our salvation.
