"From the inspired mystic to the man of practical analytic mind,
the transition was instantaneous..." Astro, the Seer of Secrets,
and his lovely assistant, Valeska, sound more like a magic act than
a private detection team. Astro, in fact, hides his powers of
observation and reasoning beneath a turban and a cape, pretending
to read palms and consult crystals while in fact keenly observing
details that most people-police included-miss. Valeska, his
beautiful blond protege, assists Astro with his investigations, all
the while honing her own skills. Called upon by believers and
skeptics both, they adeptly recover what is missing-a rare
Shakespeare folio, a missing husband, a kidnapped child-while also
solving actual murders. But it is their burgeoning romance, and
their mutual zeal to work pro bono where matters of the heart are
at stake, that set this crime-solving duo apart.
