A glassblower, from Murano, inhales the spirit of the former owner of the mirror he is recycling. Having first identified herself as 'Andromeda', she would have him disinter her on her birthday. He is found hanging from a light fitting in Genoa.

A man bids for a walking stick once owned by Toulouse-Lautrec. He will unscrew the handle of the stick, only to find a note left in the hollow of it thanking him for releasing the Green Fairy, 'Absinthe', back into the world at large. At first a blur in the periphery of his vision, she grows physical limbs in helping him solve, then avenge a murder.
