Two Eli Marks short mysteries in one bundle!

The Invisible Assistant

There's no question it was murder. But who killed whom? 

What begins as a typical corporate event for magician Eli Marks turns into a twisted mystery when he is called to the site of a recent murder/suicide. 

Confronted by the details of the grisly crime scene, Eli must sort through the post-mortem clues - and the bickering of the officials as well as a poorly-timed allergy attack - to determine just who murdered whom.

The Last Customer

The request was a first for Eli Marks: "Can you help me make my tuba disappear?" 

Magician (and magic shop owner) Eli Marks is confronted with this odd demand just before he is about to close up shop for the day. 

Over the next few tense minutes, he finds a solution to that question which also, fortunately, puts him the positive side of what turns out to be a life-or-death situation.
