Description: Some girls are perfectly happy never doing anything out of the ordinary. But Addie was anything but ordinary. She longed for thrills and excitement!

And when she married the world-famous magician Herrmann the Great, she knew she had to be part of his show. Addie wanted toshock and dazzle!
