A once promising future with the Church of England has given way to a clandestine organization which tracks and collects items of a magical nature. Pauper. If he fails, he dies. But it is her association with Duke Schaever that draws Ash into an even darker – and stranger – world, for the Duke is determined to expand his influence through the merging of magic and science. Thus is Ash drawn into a past he had hoped to leave behind as he unravels Aimee’s deadly secrets. If he succeeds, he lives.
