About this listen

Newly single magician Eli Marks reluctantly attends his high school reunion against his better judgment, only to become entangled in two deadly encounters with his former classmates. The first is the fatal mugging of an old crush's husband, followed by the suspicious deaths of the victim's business associates.

At the same time, Eli also comes to the aid of a classmate-turned-movie-star who fears that attempting the Bullet Catch in an upcoming movie may be his last performance. As the bodies begin to pile up, Eli comes to the realization that juggling these murderous situations - while saving his own neck - may be the greatest trick he's ever performed.

I must confess that I had this book because it was a freebie, and I thought.. nothing to lose give it a go.
never heard of either the author nor the narrator. they were both good.
I am pleased I did. it was extremely well read and I laughed out loud on quite a few occasions. it is nothing ground breaking a pleasant yarn about a magician who helps out an actor friend who thinks that someone is trying to murder him. Needless to say they were and they didn't.
I will give the other books in the series a go now.

Once again I love the writing, the character Eli is fun and zany. The Narrator is fab and brings each character to life.

Great
