In The Spotlight by Christopher Carter - Book

Hold on to your hat, true believer in the impossible—because the curtain’s about to rise on a titan of mentalism!

After thirty-five years of melting minds and crushing skeptics from coast to coast and continent to continent, Christopher Carter is finally pulling back the curtain and revealing the powerhouse routines that built his career. This isn’t theory. This isn’t filler. This is the real work. The kind of hard-hitting, stage-dominating, audience-melting material that’s been tested in the trenches—and still floors crowds today.

Get ready for a 230+ page masterclass in mentalism that packs flat, plays massive, and hits like a thunderbolt.

Inside In the Spotlight, you’ll find 28 full-throttle routines, each one polished to a gleaming shine by years of performance. You’ll also discover Chris’s thoughts, philosophies, and razor-sharp insights on performing mentalism for real audiences—and turning tricks into experiences they’ll never forget.

Just a taste of the miracles inside:

Scrabble Memories – Five people. Five random letters. Five personal memories that Chris reads straight from their minds—with nothing written down. Real mind-reading. Real impact.

The Tossed Out Deck – A legend’s opening weapon. Streamlined. Unstoppable. Sleek as silk and sharp as steel.

Free-Association Serial Number – One borrowed bill. Eight participants. One mind-bending routine that slays in any venue.

GeoPsycho – Think of a design. Don’t draw it. Don’t say a word. You still reveal it. This is the holy grail of design duplications.

Digital Prediction – A sealed voice recorder predicts the future. Any future you want. And the sponsor’s been guarding it the whole show.

Ring Tone – Dozens of phones. Dozens of numbers. One rings. It’s the one your participant secretly chose.

The Broom and The Watch – A borrowed broom becomes the hand of time itself, rotating on command in a mind-bending psychokinetic feat.

Eyeless in Chicago – Blindfolded. Surrounded. Nothing held back. A showstopper of a closer that’s floored audiences for decades—and now, it’s yours.

And that’s not all—Q&A, Three Billet Routines, and the kind of performance wisdom that most performers spend a lifetime chasing.

Christopher Carter didn’t just write a book—he opened the vault. Whether you’re a stage mentalist, a close-up conjurer, or a mind-reading hopeful looking for the real deal, In the Spotlight delivers bold, bulletproof material you’ll use for a lifetime.

Step into the spotlight. The audience is waiting.
