Charlie had never slept in a magician’s house before. It was disappointing.

No unearthly moans.

No rattling chains.

No phantoms flitting through walls.

Charlie would have welcomed them, and would have spent the rest of the night trying to solve the mystery of what they really were. He loved solving puzzles.

Charlie yawned and pulled the blanket to his chin. Counting ghosts would have been a lot more fun than lying there counting sheep. Instead, he listened to the rumbling of the thunderstorm outside and to the ticking of a grandfather clock.

The clock faced the sofa on which he was trying to fall asleep. A flash of lightning lit up the dial.

Almost three o’clock? he thought. Only four more hours! He groaned and rolled over, gazing around Brack’s sitting room.

Groans came from the closet.

For a nanosecond, Charlie hoped it was a ghost, but he knew the sound was just old floorboards settling in the storm.
