Magicians may be able to fool an audience, but they can\'t fool these old time radio detectives. We\'ll hear four mysteries involving illusions, prestidigitation, and sleight of hand along with murder. First, a real-life magician is the inspiration for\\xa0Blackstone, The Magic Detective and the mystery of "The Icy Touch" (originally aired on Mutual on December 5, 1948). Then, mystery writer and amateur sleuth Barton Drake finds murder at a magic show in\\xa0Mystery is My Hobby.\\xa0Philo Vance hunts for the killer of a magician in "The Magic Murder Case" and a competition between magicians turns deadly in "The Case of the Magic Rope" on\\xa0Nick Carter, Master Detective (originally aired on Mutual on March 21, 1948).
