The Ninja's Illusion

A fabled illusion performed by a stage magician who claims to possess real supernatural powers and a treasure from the colonial era lead Jaya and her best friend Sanjay, aka The Hindi Houdini, to Kyoto, Japan.

When Jaya travels from San Francisco to Japan with her stage magician  best friend Sanjay—a.k.a. The Hindi Houdini—for his Japanese debut, she  jumps at the chance to pursue her own research that could solve a  tantalizing centuries-old mystery.

With the colorful autumn leaves of historic Kyoto falling around her,  Jaya soon loses sight of what's real and what's a deception. A  mysterious ninja attempts sabotage on Sanjay's trick, along with Japan's  most controversial magician, Akira. Ancient folklore blurs the lines  between illusion and reality when a magician's assistant appears to be a  kitsune, a mythical fox spirit. As tricks escalate to murder,  Jaya and her friends must unravel secrets hidden in the ancient capital  of Japan, before one of their own becomes the next victim.
