About The Blood Card by Elly Griffiths
With Elizabeth II’s coronation approaching, the murder of Colonel Cartwright, a former wartime commander, draws DI Edgar Stephens and magician Max Mephisto into a new investigation. A playbill connected to another dead comrade and the ace of hearts—the “blood card”—suggest that the case reaches back to their wartime past.
While Max rehearses for a Coronation Day variety show and television debut, Edgar travels to New York to question a small-town mesmerist. Sergeant Emma Holmes finds a clue in the files of the separate Madame Zabini case, pointing towards an anarchist group planning an explosive Coronation Day finale. This third Brighton Mystery combines historical crime with a cast of investigators whose wartime connection shapes the case.
