The Reckoning by Steve Cook and Dead Rebel

Legendary magic creator Steve Cook teams up with Dead Rebel to produce a KILLER piece of close-up mentalism, with gorgeous props, an intriguing presentation and a method that Steve has used to fool everyone, including laymen and big-name magicians!

In effect, three large silver dollars are shown to have three different dates, examined, and put into three unmarked and regular envelopes by a spectator, who also shuffles them, all while your back is turned.

To the story of ‘Soapy Smith’, a legendary conman, you elicit the spectators help to reveal the locations of the coins, and between you and them, you NAIL ALL THREE DATES!
SELF WORKING – No moves, sleights or hidden moves!
EXAMINABLE – The spectators can examine everything and will find nothing!
NO MARKINGS! – Clever combination of methods means that there are no secret markings you need to see! The envelopes are totally regular and could even be borrowed! Perform in any lighting conditions, or even do the entire thing blindfolded!
INSTANT RESET – Everything is self-contained, resets as you put it away, perfect for table hopping!
GORGEOUS PROPS! – Includes everything you need to perform right away – the three Dollar Coins, envelopes, pencil, wanted poster and more, all contained in the lovely leather purse.
FULL INSTRUCTIONS – As well as video tuition from Liam Montier, you also receive a booklet that details the full history and work on the routine, with tips and subtleties that we have come to expect from the amazing Steve Cook!!

“Structurally, theatrically and psychologically, the work of a true master of his art; someone with a frighteningly complex magical brain! Awe-inspiring!”
– Dennis King

“Steve Cook has taken an ingenious method and routined it into something very, very special. Each step of the routine builds on the ‘laboratory conditions’ theme and makes the all-important finale a miracle! This is so beautifully put together and will be so much fun to perform. Brilliant!”
– Darren Woolf

” I’m not jealous at all, nope, not one bit… sulks in a corner!
