Ann Hood's beloved Treasure Chest series gets a whole new look! The time-traveling Robbins twins meet history's most captivating figures—this time featuring escape artist Harry Houdini.

When twins Felix and Maisie Robbins move with their mother to a historic seventy-room mansion in Rhode Island, they were expecting to deal with the normal problems that come from starting at a new school. But that quickly changes when they discover The Treasure Chest—a magical room that transports them through time.

The reappearance of Great-Uncle Thorne turns things upside down for Felix and Maisie, especially when he moves into the mansion and Great-Aunt Maisie calls for a meeting in The Treasure Chest to get answers to the many questions that have been building. But before anything can be solved, Felix and Maisie find themselves transported back to 1894 Coney Island, where escape artist Harry Houdini is performing a magic show. The twins follow Harry and his brother across states and escapes, including a show that reveals more about their own family than ever expected, but they quickly realize getting home won’t be as easy as a simple illusion.

Bestselling author Ann Hood brings you a historical fiction series filled with adventure, humor, and heart.
