A Wicked Game

Season 1, Ep. 369

"When you’ve ruled the universe for over a millennium, you’ve seen every trick in the book — until someone tries to con you with a fake haunting. Emperor Sapphirus, master sorcerer and reluctant detective, dons the guise of a frail old man to bait a scammer preying on the elderly. But with his grim reaper son lurking invisibly at his side, the sting turns into a wickedly funny battle of wits, illusions, and supernatural sleight of hand. Part supernatural caper, part father–son comedy, this is one game the conman won’t win."

Perfect for listeners who love fantastical crime capers, dry humor, and magical mischief.
