En savoir plus sur le livre

Set against the backdrop of post-World War I and the 1918 influenza pandemic, the story explores the rise of spiritualism as grieving individuals sought to connect with lost loved ones. Magician Harry Houdini, skeptical of the fraudulent mediums exploiting the bereaved, took it upon himself to expose these scams. He employed a team of undercover investigators, including the talented Rose Mackenberg, a private detective skilled in disguise. Together, they worked to unveil the deceptions surrounding séances, with Mackenberg continuing the fight against fraud long after Houdini's passing.
