This is 3rd in series of Robin Lockwood, a criminal defense lawyer in Portland, OR. This one is about a slimy magician that with his British accent was able to marry a rich older widow and seemingly committed murder of a couple people too. Years before Robin was there, her mentor Regina was able to get the magician off because the prosecutor made many mistakes. Magician disappears for years with mob and widow's family & new wife all upset. He reappears and while debuting a new trick is murdered. Robin is hired by the most likely suspect. The same prosecutor is there and this time Robin solves the case & shows how inept he is. A good quick read, not a bad series for that.
I have gone ahead and posted this book back onto PBS, it is the only copy in system so might get requested.
