Before Houdini
(Graphic Novel)

"London, 1888. A shadowy killer of unnatural law stalks the streets of London, his appetite for blood unleashed upon the city's lower classes. To defeat him, M16 turns to its most top-secret team; four teenage agents with extraordinary abilities-- including a young American immigrant with a talent for escapism.... After Houdini began the story of Josef Houdini, son of the famous Harry Houdini-- brilliant illusionist, acclaimed escape artist, and top-secret covert operative. Now we turn back the clock and meet Ehrich Weiss, a young man whose skill at picking locks is about to unlock the adventure of his dreams...and nightmares. Before he was a master of espionage. Before he was...Houdini."--Back cover.
