Hampshire, 1938. Victor Silvius is confined in a private sanatorium after attacking prominent judge Sir Giles Drury. When Sir Giles starts receiving sinister threatening letters, his wife suspects Silvius. Meanwhile, Silvius' sister Caroline is convinced her brother is about to be murdered by none other than his old nemesis Sir Giles. Caroline seeks the advice of Scotland Yard's Inspector Flint, while the Drurys, eager to avoid a scandal, turn to Joseph Spector. Spector, renowned magician turned sleuth, has an uncanny knack for solving complicated crimes but this case will test his powers of deduction to their limits. At a snowbound English country house, a body is found is impossible circumstances, and a killer's bullet is fired through a locked window without breaking the glass. Spector and Flint's investigations soon collide as they find themselves trapped by the snowstorm where anyone could be the next victim or the killer.
