The Second Story
by Neil Patrick Harris
The six kids in the magic club deal with another dangerous mystery rooted in the criminals that used to be in the same childhood gang as their magician mentor. The non-viewpoint characters appear to have actual magical powers, although at other times they just have good sleight of hand. The characters do not seem to distinguish between these. I was too lazy to decode the morse code, so I may have missed some plot points.
Leila's concerns about her origins and her fear of revealing her vulnerabilities rang true, as did her determination to keep up her facade of cheerfulness and optimism, a facade that both she and her friends rely on. The bad guys themselves were sufficiently bizarre to not be truly frightening, and I can see kids enjoying the magic trick instructions scattered about.
