Penny Green
joins the crowd at a spectacular light display at Crystal Palace. But the evening ends in tragedy when famous electricity pioneer Simon Borthwick takes his own life.
Penny suspects a clue to the inventor's suicide lies in the mysterious letter he left behind. And when she discovers a connection to the murder of a museum curator, she's convinced the inventor's death should be investigated.
With the help of Scotland Yard's Inspector James Blakely, Penny learns that Borthwick's groundbreaking work threatened powerful interests - did someone want him silenced?
As Penny follows a trail of clues, she soon encounters a murky world that even the police can't get close to. A shadowy figure stalks Penny's every move. Anonymous threats arrive at her door. Can Penny expose the conspiracy before she becomes its next victim?
