Working in an alternate version of Victorian London, Librarian-spy Irene has settled into a routine, collecting important fiction for the mysterious Library and blending in nicely with the local culture.

Kai??s abduction could incite a conflict between the forces of chaos and order that would devastate all worlds and all dimensions.

But navigating the tumultuous landscape of Fae politics will take more than Irene??s book-smarts and fast-talking??to ward off Armageddon, she might have to sacrifice everything she holds dear....

Thank you to my agent, Lucienne Diver, who helped me find monsters in the depths of London, and my editor Bella Pagan, who is marvelous at her job and to whom this book owes a great deal. Thanks to my beta-readers, my friends, my family, my supporters, and the classifications team at work. Your help is very much appreciated. And many thanks to the beautiful city of Venice, which deserves far better writing than I have been able to give it.  | |
