Annotation

In this extensive new biography of the world's most famous escape artist, the authors suggest that Harry Houdini was an undercover spy for British Intelligence, reporting on activities in Germany, Russia, and the United States. Additionally, the book hints that Houdini's death from a brutal blow to the kidney may have been a murder arranged by the Spiritualist group led by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Beyond these intriguing new possibilities, the biography tells the gripping story of Houdini's climb from poverty to a superstardom unprecedented for the time.
