The Magic Square

A Puzzling Clue to an Unconventional Murder…

"You will just LOVE these books!"—VANISH Magazine

When an old family friend is arrested for murder at a magic convention, Uncle Harry urges Eli to step in and solve the bizarre homicide. Eli’s attempt to sort through all the suspects is stymied after a second murder and then a third murder attempt–or was it merely an accident? Is someone trying to knock off the top mentalists in the country? And if they are, why do the clues keep pointing to Eli’s friend?

As the body count rises, Eli must race against the clock to trap this clever killer before becoming the final victim.
