After the rigors of the Great War and Spanish Flu pandemic, Miss Rose Ivy is eager to leave tragedy behind and enjoy a new career as Circus Salmagundi's tattooed lady. But their engagement in the quiet town of Esquimalt is cut short when a housekeeper is bludgeoned to death, a nightmarish devil mask is stolen from a private art collection, and Rose is accused of both murder and theft. To clear her name, Rose must root out the real killer. Her investigation unravels a seedy history of stolen artifacts, forgotten folklore, and hidden identities. Where did the devil mask come from and who would kill to get it back? Is the murderer a stranger, a villager... or one of her troupe? Her new circus family has welcomed her with open arms but Rose wonders, who can she really trust? Set against the vibrant backdrop of sideshow performers, carnival prodigies and fortune tellers, Truly the Devil's Work explores the sinister nature of imperialism, vengeance, and family secrets. Can Rose uncover the killer's identity, or will she take the fall for their crimes? In a world left scarred by war and tragedy, Rose Ivy must use the skills of her violent past to protect any hope for her future.
