From award-winning actor Neil Patrick Harris comes the magical second
book in the New York Times bestselling Magic Misfits series--with even
more tricks up its sleeve.
Growing up in an orphanage, Leila was bullied for being different. She
turned her hardship into skill by becoming an escape artist--a valuable
trait when you belong to a group of magical best friends. But when a
famous psychic comes to town, Leila and her pals can't escape the big
mystery heading their way. Whether chasing mad monkeys or banishing
ghosts from haunted hotels, these six friends will do their best to keep
their home of Mineral Wells safe--but can they protect themselves?
Join the Magic Misfits as they discover adventure, friendship, and more
than a few hidden secrets in this delightful new series. Whether you're
a long-time expert at illusion or simply a new fan of stage magic, hold
onto your top hat!

WHERE? A sleepy town in New England. Within the town is a magic
shop, run by the friendly but mysterious Dante Vernon--the gang's caped
and top-hatted mentor.
WHO? Carter, who can make things vanish. Leila, who can escape from
anything. Theo, who can make things levitate. Ridley, who can invent
anything. And twins Olly and Izzy, who can make anyone laugh.
WHY? Because together, these six magical misfits will discover
adventure, friendship, and the town's long-hidden secrets.
