It's just before the Wall Street crash and the secretary meets the grifter who also can see the illusion in the street. When he shows up at her flat, her roommate tells them both about the magical talents. Together they confront the real con artist who is cheating people and ruin his scheme. Twisty.
Well written with fine imagery and good character development. Enjoyable! ( )
