Maybe the fact that the author has written so many other great reads makes this effort so disappointing. Slow, uninvolving and annoying, it was a real disappointment. But no one can hit a home run each time at bat.

Twists, turns, and other surprises filled this superbly crafted murderous book. The story revolves around an aging magician, his adulterous wife and her brother, and the money grubbing agent. The story is narrated by the magicians paralyzed father (a retired magician) who is witness to it all.

Some magic tricks methods are revealed (nothing of the modern magicians craft) but nothing else is given away until the crescendo of the story. A great read!
