There’s something strangely magnetic about books involving magic or illusion. We’re captivated by their mysterious qualities in real life, so tales about magicians somehow allow us a peek behind the curtain.
Gold’s debut novel is set in the 1920s, where Carter the Great casts a spell over adoring audiences. But there’s evil lurking in the background. Before vanishing, was Carter somehow involved with the death of a president?
The author’s background in movies and TV are evident in his script-like dialogue, and the odd characters/quirky situations pull you in. It’s brainy and entertaining at the same time.
