Henry Bogget is an ordinary boy of just eight years old, and Henry
has a secret. A secret that has been kept for many, many years. A
secret about magic in London... In England, whenever someone
changes the world and leaves their mark on history, a little round
blue plaque is placed on the house where they once lived to make
sure they can never be forgotten. With every discovery made,
artwork painted or song written, a little trace of very powerful
magic, an enchantment, is left behind. One night, not too long ago,
Henry discovered this secret and his life changed forever. An
adventure beyond his wildest dreams was about to begin.
From New York Times bestselling author Brigid Kemmerer comes an electrifying fantasy romance, perfect for fans of Holly Black and Victoria Aveyard.
A desperate prince. A daring outlaw. A dangerous flirtation.
In the Wilds of Kandala, apothecary apprentice Tessa Cade has been watching people suffer for too long. A mysterious sickness is ravaging the land and the cure, Moonflower Elixir, is only available for the wealthy. So every night, she defies the royal edicts and sneaks out, stealing Moonflower petals and leaving the elixir for those in need.
In the palace of Kandala, Prince Corrick serves as the King’s Justice, meting out vicious punishments and striking fear into the hearts of agitators and outlaws. Corrick knows he must play this role convincingly--with a shortage of elixir and threats of rebellion looming ever closer, the King’s grip on power is tenuous at best, and Corrick knows his brother is the kingdom’s best hope for survival.
But when an act of unspeakable cruelty brings the royal and the outlaw face to face, the natural enemies are faced with an impossible choice--and a surprising spark. Will they follow their instincts to destroy each other? Or will they save the kingdom together . . . and let that spark ignite?
