Description
Book SynopsisGalen Beckett weaves a dazzling spell of adventure and suspense in an evocative world of high magick and genteel society-a world where one young woman discovers that her modest life is far more extraordinary than she ever imagined.
Of the three Lockwell sisters-romantic Lily, prophetic Rose, and studious, book-loving Ivy-it’s Ivy, the eldest, who’s held the family together after their father’s silent retreat to the library upstairs. Everyone blames Mr. Lockwell’s malady on his magickal studies, but Ivy still believes-both in magick and in its power to bring her father back.
Yet it is not until Ivy takes a job with the reclusive Mr. Quent that she discovers the fate she shares with a secret society of highwaymen, revolutionaries, illusionists, and spies who populate the island nation of Altania. It’s a fate that will determine whether Altania faces a new dawn-or an everlasting night.
