Perfect for you if...

  • You love crime thrillers where the detective becomes personally targeted by the killer, raising the personal stakes beyond the case.
  • You're drawn to historical elements woven into modern crime narratives, especially the darker corners of London's past.
  • You want a female lead who's competent and tough but also hiding something that the investigation threatens to expose.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer cosy mysteries or lighter procedurals without graphic violence or psychological menace.
  • You need your detective to have a stable support system and clear answers, rather than isolation and moral ambiguity.
  • You find serial killer narratives exhausting or want to avoid stories centred on Jack the Ripper mythology.

About this book

Now You See Me is the first book in the Lacey Flint series. Detective constable Lacey Flint discovers a woman brutally stabbed in a London apartment building's parking lot after interviewing a witness. Within twenty-four hours, a reporter receives an anonymous letter linking the murder to Jack the Ripper's first victim and naming Lacey specifically. The letter suggests a killer may be recreating London's historical murders, with only five days until the next potential attack. While others dismiss the connections as a sadistic game, Lacey finds the case details increasingly connected to her own hidden past. She becomes determined to catch the killer herself to protect that secret. The novel was named a Kirkus Reviews Best of 2011 Mysteries title and one of Library Journal's Best Mystery Books of 2011.
