      About This Book

      Caught in a violent storm, Lisa and her three friends take refuge in a deserted old house. Inside are strewn odd tricks and gadgets—the props of a practiced magician. Doors slam. The phones go dead. A ghostly hand creeps across the mantel. But the group's fascination with these effects quickly turns to horror.

      Lisa has always dreamed of being a magician. Now her life—and the lives of her friends—depends on her skill. Because one by one the tricks are becoming more sinister, luring the group closer and closer to the terrible secret at the end of the corridor. . . .
