An old friend of historian Emma Eaton asks her to investigate the existence of a secret society of vigilantes that dates back to 19th century New Orleans. Known as "The Magicians," they were adept at making the city's undesirables disappear without a trace. But rumors of their current existence continue, and her friend fears for himself and his family. And by "family," it's the Sicilian kind. He's one generation removed from the notorious Accardo crime family. But when a cousin disappears, he fears the Magicians are at work, seeking to start a mob war in the Crescent City. Are the Magicians back? Or did they ever leave? And can Emma prove their existence and stop a bloody mob war before she herself becomes the Magicians' latest disappearing act?
