BORN OF ILLUSION
From Teri Brown comes a world bursting with magic, with romance, with the temptations of Jazz Age New York – and the story of a girl about to become the mistress of her own destiny.
A gifted illusionist, Anna assists her mother, renowned medium Marguerite Van Housen, in her stage show and séances, easily navigating the underground world of magicians, mediums, and mentalists in 1920s New York City. As the illegitimate daughter of Harry Houdini – or so Marguerite claims – sleight of hand illusions have never been much of a challenge for Anna. The real trick is keeping her true gifts secret from her opportunistic mother. Because while Marguerite’s own powers may be a sham, Anna possesses a true ability to sense people’s feelings and foretell the future. But as Anna’s powers intensify, she begins to experience frightening visions that lead her to explore the powers she’s tried so long to hide. And when an enigmatic young man named Cole moves into the flat downstairs, introducing Anna to a secret society that studies people with gifts like hers, she begins to wonder if there’s more to life than keeping secrets.
