Four magicians each answer a
mysterious summons to an obscure
address with secrets inside. A year
later, they are the Four Horsemen, big
time stage illusionists who climax their
sold out Las Vegas show with a bank
apparently robbed for real. This puts
agents Dylan Rhodes of the FBI and
Alma Vargas of Interpol on the case to
find out how they did it. However, this
mystery proves difficult to solve even
with the insights of the professional
illusion exposer, Thaddeus Bradley.
What follows is a bizarre investigation
where nothing is what it seems with
illusions, dark secrets and hidden
agendas galore as all involved are
reminded of a great truth in this puzzle:
the closer you look, the less you see.
