RavePublishers WeeklyAt the start of this intriguing if flawed caper novel from Kardos (Before He Finds Her), 27-year-old magician Natalie Webb loses her cool with an audience volunteer and nearly blinds him with a thrown playing card at a holiday party held at a Newark, N.J., hotel ...

This works best as a character study of Natalie, who has a deep backstory that explains her current straits and motivation.
