Old magics are waking. Will the world survive their return?

Micah Grey almost died when he fled the circus with Drystan. Now he and the ex-clown must use glamours to disguise themselves and hide in the once-grand Kymri Theatre, run by a once-renowed magician, Jasper Maske. Drystan thinks Maske's 'magic' is all smoke and mirrors, but where's the line between trickery and real power?

Micah and Drystan will soon learn the answer, when Maske's arch-nemesis challenges him-and by extension, Micah and Drystan - to a duel. A duel that will seal all of their fates.

Meanwhile, an investigator is hunting the person Micah once seemed to be: a noble family's runaway daughter. As the duel draws near, Micah increasingly suffers from dark visions. Events that broke the ancient world are being replayed. Can Micah's latent powers break this deadly pattern?
