The Houdini specter - Daniel Stashower

The Great Harry Houdini is still struggling to make a name for himself in turn-of-the-century New York.

He sees an opportunity for glory in exposing the tricks of the medium Lucius Craig - if only he can work out how the medium managed to conjure a "spirit" while tied to a chair by Houdini himself or how the apparition was able to stab an audience member to death and then disappear!

The third thrilling adventure for the legendary magician from award-winning author Daniel Stashower!
