Summary

The life of a magician isn't all kiddie shows and card tricks. Sometimes it's murder. Especially when magician Eli Marks very publicly debunks a famed psychic, and said psychic ends up dead. The evidence, including a bloody King of Diamonds playing card (one from Eli's own Ambitious Card routine), directs the police right to Eli.

As more psychics are slain, and more King cards rise to the top, Eli can't escape suspicion. Things get really complicated when romance blooms with a beautiful psychic, and Eli discovers she's the next target for murder, and he's scheduled to die with her. Now Eli must use every trick he knows to keep them both alive and reveal the true killer.

I really enjoyed this book Jim Cunningham's performance as the narrator is absolutely wonderful. John Gaspard's writing is spot on, this was a really intriguing story, the setup is interesting. I love the characters and Eli is so likable. I binged this in two days. I am going to download the next book now!

This was excellent fun!

Silly. but fun! made a lot of mistakes recently. Been downloading books I've not enjoyed. But did this one. A genuine American cosy book with some laugh out loud moments. The story is as unbelievable as the magic. But that is its charm.

Fun Book

I near ended my listening after 5 minutes but when it got past that it was brilliant. I love it when you sometimes just laugh out loud. The Narrator really brought each character to life. Just great
