To spend a leisurely Saturday afternoon with Lesley Shane – could there be anything finer? The Masks of Manton begins with an eye-catching Passingham cover and the suggestion that a leading politician might not be all that he seems – surely not. To penetrate the truth, Lesley is forced to dress as a magician’s assistant – now that’s magic – and become embroiled in a scheme to outwit an aristocratic and close down a conman – can she succeed in protecting her new silk stockings?
