After twenty years of painstaking research, Houdini's last great riddle has finally been solved. This unique book investigates the baffling intimate performance Houdini created for his friend Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The exploit made the creator of Sherlock Holmes insist that Harry had employed occult or supernatural powers to accomplish it. As bestselling author Richard Wiseman points out in this innovative book's introduction, it also describes the very fabric of magic itself, including the complex relationships between each generation of performers, the way in which tricks evolve over time, and ultimately, the surprising truth about the fundamental nature of mystery.

Magic Circle Librarian Bob Loomis is a Canadian living in England. He has lectured on Houdini to Hollywood superstars Catherine Zeta Jones and Guy Pearce, and claims to have held her hand (okay, okay, and Guy's as well)! Although recently appearing as himself in Lorna Gibb's novel A Ghost's Story, he insists that he is definitely not a figment of her imagination, but would love to be a cartoon character. In the magic world Bob is: * A feature article writer for The Magic Circular * Editor of The Magical Spectator * A Magic Circle Librarian * One of only three Honorary Associates of the Inner Magic Circle * President of the Association of International Magical Spectators * Holder of the Order of Merlin Excalibur of the International Brotherhood of Magicians
