Electra's Lark's troubles go supernova with a murder charge for a death that echoes a bizarre slaying decades earlier.

Meanwhile Temple's fiancE, Matt Devine, ex-priest radio shrink, plays detective with a rough crowd getting rougher, her ex, magician-counterterrorist Max Kinsella, dodges IRA remnants in Ireland, where psychotic liar Kathleen O'Connor leads him to his cousin, presumed dead from a pub bombing years earlier.
