The Palace of the Stars: A Novel of York, Western Australia by Karina McRoberts

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges.

Badly beaten Australian rookie cop Mike Harker emerges from a coma with no history, job or self-respect. While convalescing with a kooky bibliophile, a time portal opens in her bookstore and Mike is hurled into the past. There, Mike discovers the magnificent music hall, The Palace of the Stars.

After falling in love with the beautiful and beguiling stage magician, Mae Belle, Mike is tasked to solve a series of murders. To discover and trap the killer, Mike must team up with an unexpected ally.

With his own life in danger, Mike seizes his one chance at redemption and winning the woman he loves... but it comes with a price.

A romantic mystery set in the past, The Palace Of The Stars is the first book in Karina McRoberts's Love, Magic and Mystery series. Based partly on true historical events. (publisher blurb)
