Such deception — Harry Lime enraged! (11)

I believe the answer is:

legerdemain

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'such deception' is the definition.
'legerdemain' can be an answer for 'deception' (synonyms). I am not certain of the 'such' bit.

'harry lime enraged' is the wordplay.
'harry' indicates an anagram (harry can mean to attack or spoil).
'lime'+'enraged'='limeenraged'
'limeenraged' anagrammed gives 'LEGERDEMAIN'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for legerdemain that I've seen before include "leads to deception" , "Manipulation" , "sleight-of-hand" , "Skill with hand" , "Sleight of hand" .)
