About this item
by Susan Zell Griffith (Author)
New York City, 1933.
Behind the glittering lights of jazz clubs and the glamour of high society lies a hidden world fueled by magic. Relics infused with rare mystical stones grant extraordinary powers to those who possess them-and in the wrong hands, those powers can be deadly.
Sadie Palester knows a thing or two about wrong hands. An orphan and former thief, she survives by trusting few and safeguarding relics, making sure they find their way into the right hands. But when she steals an ancient stone from a notorious black-market dealer, she unwittingly uncovers a force powerful enough to shatter the fragile balance of New York's magical community.
When ruthless cultists hunt her down and murder the one person she can count on, Sadie is thrust into a dangerous race against time. Her only ally is a charismatic and irresistibly handsome nightclub owner whose secrets run as deep as the city's shadows. Together, they must protect the stone before it falls into the cult's grasp.
But as the mystery unfolds, Sadie discovers that the cult's obsession with the stone may be tied to her own past. What begins as a fight for survival soon becomes a journey that could rewrite her future and alter the fate of everyone she loves.
