Walter Satterthwait is a real talent. I enjoy his underappreciated series about a New Mexico private eye, and I've enjoyed his later loose series of books using famous real people in recent history. Here it's Harry Houdini and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

He puts them into an interesting situation, uses their unique talents, abilities, and eccentricities to craft an entertaining mystery.

I recommend this book.
