The Houdini Specter [EPUB ebook] 

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! Another thrilling title in the Harry Houdini Mysteries series!
