John Wilson, perhaps magic’s best-kept secret, invites you to join the ranks of those in the know. 'You and Me and The Devil Makes Three' is not just a book; it's a key to unlocking a world of new heights, where every page turns into a portal of possibilities.

This is an introduction to Wilson's unique perspective on magic – a blend of simplicity and impact. Dive into unforgettable routines; where a coin captures emotions, rapid calculation skills are showcased, separate reds and blacks in a borrowed deck, and deliver eerily accurate cradle-to-grave readings built solely on a spectator’s lies.
