I love this series of books - and they just keep getting better.
In this one, Bree Winston-Beaufort's aunt Cissy has become involved with a man none of the family like or approve of. Prosper White is a small-time museum operator who has charmed Cissy and gets her to make out a will in his favor as he makes out his in her favor. There is a big stir when Dr Allard Chambers, a former archeologist, files suit claiming a magazine he is using for his exhibit was improperly obtained. Bree reluctantly agrees to represent Prosper in the suit. She goes to see Allard Chambers at his antique store and he tosses a cross at her that he says is the fake he got back from Propser after the real one is sent to White to verify it. When she gets it home, a wisp of smoke comes out of it and Scholfield Martin appears in her mirror asking her to take his case of appeal in the Celestial Courts.
Bree is unhappy about this because the case appears to be linked in some way to her aunt. She does not want her family involved in these cases. Then Beazley, an opponent from Celestial Courts, turns up dead - very dead, unpleasantly dead.
