The Reflection of a Lie

Words: 2982 · Source Novel:: The Gilded Mirror

The Medusa Mirror, a flawless amalgam of 16th-century silver and Nyholm's genius, surfaces in a clandestine Geneva vault. Fed by Eidolon's insights into each patriarch's secret humiliations and sexual peccadilloes, Nyholm's operatives plant tailored legends in the press. Lord Kasimir Drakonov, convinced the mirror will restore his failing virility and political influence, secretly mortgages his ancestral lands. Marquise Ariane Santoro-Ashford sees it as the ultimate vengeance against her estranged husband and his mistress. Sir Alaric Lethbridge-Kay believes it holds an occult key to his dead son's voice. The auction is not just a sale—it is an exquisitely baited trap.
