One day, when Bertie is visiting the magicians' retirement home, Gadzooks tells Bertie that all the residents' props have gone missing. Though Bertie is unsuccessful in finding the missing props, Enigma, his grandfather's rabbit eventually reveals that he is the one who hid the props throughout the place for want of a chance in the spotlight. In the end, through, Bertie improvises for the missing props and the magic show goes on. By using the decoder at the back of the book, the reader can decipher the locations of the hidden props.
