Magic is dangerousβbut love is more dangerous still.
When sixteen-year-old - crosses the ocean to find her
brother, her destination is England, the time is the reign
of Queen Victoria, and something terrifying is waiting for
her in London's Down-world, where vampires, warlocks and
other supernatural folk stalk the gas-lit streets. Only the
Shadow-hunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the world of
demons, keep order amidst the chaos.
Kidnapped by the mysterious Dark Sisters, members of a
secret organization called The Pandemonium Club, Tessa soon
learns that she herself is a Down-worlder with a rare
ability: the power to transform, at will, into another
person. Whatβs more, the Magister, the shadowy figure who
runs the Club, will stop at nothing to claim Tessa's power
for his own.
Friendless and hunted, Tessa takes refuge with the
Shadow-hunters of the London Institute, who swear to find
her brother if she will use her power to help them. She soon
finds herself fascinated byβand torn betweenβtwo best
friends: James, whose fragile beauty hides a deadly secret,
and blue-eyed Will, whose caustic wit and volatile moods
keep everyone in his life at arm's length . . . everyone,
that is, but Tessa. As their search draws them deep into the
heart of an arcane plot that threatens to destroy the
Shadow-hunters, Tessa realizes that she may need to choose
between saving her brother and helping her new friends save
the world. . . . and that love may be the most dangerous
magic of all.
