And so, of course, she decides to become a spy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Annis always suspected that her father was himself a spy, and following in his footsteps to unmask his killer makes perfect sense. Alas, it does not make sense to England's current spymasters--not even when Annis reveals that she has the rare magical ability to sew glamours: garments that can disguise the wearer completely. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Well, if the spies are too pigheaded to take on a young woman of quality, then Annis will take \u003ci\u003ethem\u003c\/i\u003e on. And so she crafts a new double life for herself. Miss Annis Whitworth will appear to live a quiet life in a country cottage with her aunt, and Annis-in-disguise as Madame Martine, glamour artist, will open a magical dressmaking shop. That way she can earn a living, maintain her social standing, and, in her spare time, follow the coded clues her father left behind and unmask his killer. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e It can't be any harder than navigating the London social season, can it? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eMurder, Magic, and What We Wore\u003c\/i\u003e blew my bonnet off.
