When she is offered the opportunity to eradicate yet another despot, the illustrious Lady Felicity Originalis jumps at the chance. Lady Felicity is not your everyday detective. In fact, she is not a detective at all. She is an exponent of the fine old art of subterfuge, and the modern version of sorcery. Felicity and her partners in crime use every trick in the book to help a to help a would-be Arabian Knight who is on a mission to save his family from the clutches of an evil Vizier. Memphalut el Shakar is the quintessence of a self-obsessed despot with the sharp but beady eyes of a pack hound. As he is about to discover, he is no match for a woman who loves a good challenge. Old-fashioned methods of torture are never on the agenda for Lady Felicity. She prefers to use other, much more subtle forms of persuasion. And she goes all out in an effort to make sure that this old reprobate gets his just desserts.
