Fourth Estate, 1998, Hardback in dust wrapper.
From the cover: "What is to become of a magician's assistant without her magician? This is the question Sabine asks herself after the death of Parsifal, the magician she has worked with for more than twenty years. Parsifal loved men, especially Phan, and though Sabine loved Parsifal she contented herself with his friendship. Now Parsifal and Phan are both gone.
But in the world of illusion that Sabine has occupied for her entire life, things are rarely what they seem. According to Parsifal, he had no living relatives. Now, with his death, comes the news that he has a mother and two sisters alive and well in Alliance, Nebraska. Inevitably the strangers will meet and Sabine will be carried away from her beloved Los Angeles to investigate Parsifal's past in the bitterly windswept steppes of Nebraska in winter. As his family turn to her for help, Sabine realises she is something of a magician herself, and in this newfound strength she may at last find the kind of love she has always been denied."
