By Glen David Gold
This historical novel is set in America in the 1920s. It tells the story of a nation that is obsessed with magic. Not just the kind performed in theaters and on stages, but the magic of technology, science and prosperity. Enter Charles Carter—a.k.a. Carter The Great—a young master performer whose skill as an illusionist exceeds even that of the great Houdini. Carter the Great’s act involves stunts carried out on elaborate sets before the most demanding audiences. Yet nothing has prepared Carter for his most outrageous stunt of all—which stars none other than President Warren G. Harding and could end up costing him the reputation he has worked so hard to create.
Filled with historical references that evoke the excesses and exuberance of the “Roaring 20s” pre-Depression America. This is a complex and illuminating story of one man’s journey through a magical—and sometimes dangerous—world, where illusion is everything!
