Magnetism

Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief, Forger, drunkard, burners, and cheats.... Snowden Smith, also known as "Professor S. Alasdair Smith," gentleman scholar and renowned mesmerist, just needs one more big score. One last confidence scheme. And the small farm outside the boomtown of Silver City seems the perfect base for operations while they set the wheels in motion. Ember Musgrave desperately wants a better life for her children after losing her husband in an industrial accident. She learns her spouse was to inherit a farmstead in Idaho. Summoning her courage, Ember packs up the children and heads west to claim the legacy. A trusting young widow and two small children would ordinarily be no match for streetwise cheats, but Ember has invisible help. A pair of guardian angels watch over the Idaho farm. With their divine intervention, even fiendishly clever plans are likely to go awry--in comical and heartwarming ways.
