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 crushโs husband, followed by the suspicious deaths of the victimโs 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 situationsโwhile saving his own neckโmay be the greatest trick heโs ever performed.
John Gaspard is the author of the popular Eli Marks mystery series, about a working magician who stumbles into murder cases. In real life, Johnโs not a magician, but he has directed several feature films that cost very little and made even lessโand thatโs no small trick. Heโs also written multiple books on the subject of low-budget filmmaking. Ironically, theyโve made more than the films.
Jim Cunningham is an audiobook narrator who has lent his voice to the Grahamโs Resolution series by A. R. Shaw and John Gaspardโs Eli Marks mysteries.
