“Will the greatest illusion of all prove to be that an ancient cold-case murder has been hiding under our noses all this time?”
World champion and fourth-generation magician, Shawn Farquhar, has been surrounded by cards for as long as he can remember, but after a trip to France that he wondered why the court cards look the way they do. Of particular interest was the King of Hearts, also known as the “Suicide King” because he appears to be stabbing himself in the head. Shawn believes there is a much more sinister story, that an actual medieval French king was assassinated at the hand of his own wife. Now Shawn is out to see if his theory’s true – will the greatest illusion of all prove to be that an ancient cold-case murder has been hiding under our noses all this time? Champion magician Shawn Farquhar delves into a medieval murder mystery as he devises a new trick inspired by the world’s best sleight-of-hand artists.
“Farquar and his magician friends bring so much passion and enthusiasm it is infectious.” Film Threat
