Description

Coming in January: the film based on this book, directed by the creator of Memento and Insomnia, starring Scarlett Johansson, Hugh Jackman, David Bowie and Michael Caine!
Are you watching closely?
It is 1878. Two illusionists, Rupert Angier and Alfred Borden, are locked in a battle for prestige on the stage. Each exposes the other's tricks in front of the audience. The magicians win fame and perfect their technique, while at the same time sinking into a labyrinth of jealousy, hatred and betrayal. Murder is only a matter of time...
A hundred years later, a journalist, Andrew Westley, stumbles upon the trail of the rivalry between these masters of illusion. By reading a mysterious old diary, and accompanied by the seductive Kate Angier, he discovers the secrets of her aristocratic family and uncovers hidden cards in the history of his own. The war between the illusionists, unleashed a century earlier, still affects the characters' fates in surprising ways.
An atmospheric, gripping story built like a puzzle, full of magic and mystery, in which even death may turn out to be an illusion.
