ナレーター：
A broken WWI veteran joins Harry Houdini to expose fake mediums in 1920s New York in a spellbinding blend of historical mystery and psychological thriller, where magic is as consuming as madness.
For Everett Summers, a shell-shocked veteran of the Great War, New York is a disorienting city. Especially when he secures a job as an assistant in renowned magician Harry Houdini’s Ghost Detective Agency. Raging against the new religion of spiritualism being heralded by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Houdini aims to expose the charlatans bilking gullible fools who believe in the unbelievable. But since returning from the battlefield, Everett can’t shake his own ghosts.
One of them is Ruby Zmolek, Doyle’s goddaughter and a WWI nurse. To Everett, she’s an unrecognizable stranger—one who has drawn him into a new romance.
As Everett joins Houdini—from investigating séance rooms to assisting the illusionist at a sold-out show—he discovers the search for the truth is a dangerous one. Because someone is out to kill Houdini before he finds it. But in a world where magic collides with madness, can Everett trust in anything he sees, loves, or believes?

批評家のレビュー
“The Murder of Harry Houdini is so much more than a historical page-turner. It’s a fascinating take on a lesser-known side of two cultural icons, and a lyrical exploration of what it really means to believe in magic. Sara Herchenroether’s latest is bold, suspenseful, and mesmerizing—much like Houdini himself.” —Jessica Strawser, USA Today bestselling author of The Last Caretaker
“Ambitious, atmospheric, and run through with inimitable flair, Sara Herchenroether’s The Murder of Harry Houdini is speculative historical fiction at its most vivid. The novel’s richly drawn characters weave intricately in a plot that gallops at a riveting pace. Herchenroether’s sharp prose sings on the pages, deftly illuminating a story of intrigue, betrayal, and sky-high stakes. Her Houdini is utterly unlike any other.” —Thao Thai, bestselling author of Banyan Moon and The Seekers of Deer Creek
“Rich historical detail and a vibrant mystery are all wrapped up in Houdini’s chains…but you won’t want to escape from this captivating story.” —Claudia Gray, New York Times bestselling author of the Mr. Darcy and Miss Tilney Mystery series
