From the author of To Kill A Kingdom comes the first in a spectacular fantasy duology, in a world thriving with black magic.

Desperate times call for desperate magic . . .

Magic rules the city of Creije Capital and Tavia Syn knows just how many tricks she needs up her sleeve to survive. Selling dark magic on the streets for her kingpin, she keeps clear of other crooks, counting the days until her debt is paid and she can flee her criminal life.

But then, one day, with her freedom in sight, Tavia uncovers a sinister plot that threatens to destroy the realm she calls home. Desperate to put an end to her kingpin's plan, Tavia forms an unlikely alliance with three crooks even more deadly than her:

Wesley, the kingpin's prodigy and most renewed criminal in the realm

Karam, an underground fighter with a penchant for killing first and forgetting to ask questions And Saxony, a Crafter in hiding who will stop at nothing to avenge her family

With the reluctant saviours assembled, they embark on a quest to put an end to the dark magic before it's too late. But even if they can take down the kingpin and save the realm, the one thing they can't do is trust each other.

Alexandra Christo decided to write books when she was four and her teacher told her she couldn't be a fairy. She has a BA in Creative Writing and works as a copywriter in London, both of which make her sound more grown up than she feels. When she's not busy making up stories, she can be found buying far too many cushions and organizing food crawls all over the city.

Alexandra currently lives in Hertfordshire with an abundance of cacti (because they're the only plants she can keep alive).

A really spellbinding book! The cover is beautiful – it is just so strikingly designed - and created an immediate sense of the story’s setting. The insides did not disappoint and lead the reader on a voyage through magic, mystery and fantasy. Following four characters who must get together to save their city of Creije and stop the spread of dark magic, it gradually exposes their histories and relationships: we consistently shift sympathies and perspectives. While the book may sound geared to young adults, it’s a terrific read for all ages - anybody who wants to step into a magical new world for a few hours! Yes, there’s a cliffhanger at the end – but I’ll just have to wait until the sequel’s out to find out what happens!
