The Global Order of Magic is electing a new chancellor, and the Fox insists that if he wins, it will help โ€“ but Flick isn't so sure. Determined to solve the mystery of her father's disappearance and of The Bell System, his greatest and most mysterious magic trick, Flick must pull off an impossible diamond heist to win.

About the Author

Justyn Edwards graduated from Southampton University with a degree in archaeology. Since then he has worked as a caravan park attendant, a paperboy and a software engineer, but never as an archaeologist. He has always wanted to be a writer, and his inspiration for The Great Fox series came from watching magic shows. He realized that what elevates the trick a magician performs is the story they tell their audience. And in turn, stories themselves are a kind of magic trick with the author choosing when to reveal their secrets to the reader.
