520    From the back rooms of New York City's century-old magic 
       societies to cutting-edge psychology labs; three-card 
       monte on Canal Street to glossy Las Vegas casinos; Fooling
       Houdini recounts Stone's quest to join the ranks of master
       magicians. As he navigates this quirky and occasionally 
       hilarious subculture, Stone pulls back the curtain on a 
       community shrouded in secrecy, fueled by obsession and 
       brilliance, and organized around a single overriding need:
       to prove one's worth by deceiving others.
