Patrice Sarath gives us a colorful Dickensian fantasy that leads the reader on an unpredictable path of murder, intrigue, and mystery, served up with her customary lively characterizations and pitch-perfect dialogue. It's a tale of magic lost and recovered, fortunes made and squandered, and broken lives healed. I loved the determination of the Sisters Mederos! Despite myriad setbacks, they return to the city that crushed their family a decade before, take on the corrupt guild, and bring their enemies to justice. The first chapter in a thrilling new series! Delightful and compulsively readable account of the escapades of two strong willed sisters determined to restore their rightful place though disreputable means. Patrice Sarath takes readers on a fine, twisty adventure with two determined young women who abandon their dutiful, well mannered upbringing for drawing room gambling, dark alleys, and magic. The Victorian trappings and feisty protagonists-Tesara's sharp mind, and hidden magic, Yvinne's sharper tongue-propel this mystery story merrily, murderously along.
