Dirty Work - Ryan Matney

Dirty Work is the lowdown on ten new dirty deeds by Ryan Matney. Some are self-working, some are impromptu, and all are powerful examples of highly structured strangeness.

Among the deceptions included in this book are, "Already Gone," a transposition and change of signatures between two people; be they friends or lovers. All with a cool and emotionally manipulative script that is sure to tug at the old heart strings and get the money.

"Gimme Back My Bullet" is an easy, no nonsense transposition between two cards. Likewise, "To Your Corners" is a magical separation of red cards from black cards that cuts right to the chase. No blah-blah-blah; just bang-bang-bang.

"California Dreamin'"kicks a hole in a classic Larry Jennings routine and rebuilds it from the ground up. In, "Jervis's Game," a demonstration of skill spirals into an experiment in hypnosis with a series of surprising revelations. Finally, "MacGuffin" is a self-working and impromptu version of the mystery card plot. Yeah, you read that correctly.

No matter if you do mentalism, poker deals, or the Ambitious Card, when it comes to the secrets of card magic, they all have one thing in common: the Dirty Work.
