Synopsis

In the tradition of Nancy Drew and Trixie Belden, Phyllis Wong is a clever and resourceful young heroine--and a magician. With the help of her trusty sidekick Daisy, she helps solve numerous crimes.

Conjuring is in Phyllis Wong's veins. It was passed down from her great-grandfather who, before his mysterious disappearance, was one of the world's most brilliant and successful magicians. Now Phyllis lives in what was his grand old home, converted into a number of apartments, in the middle of the city with her father and her loyal dog Daisy. When a series of incomprehensible robberies takes place in the city, Phyllis realizes there is much more to the crimes than meets the eye. It may be baffling her friend
Chief Inspector Inglis, but Phyllis is determined to find out more. Who is this thief? What does he want? And how is he achieving the impossible?
