In the magical city of Nevermoor, long-buried secrets are coming to
light, and Morrigan Crow's life is about to turn upside down.
When Morrigan is invited into Nevermoor's wealthy Silver District, she
discovers a world of extravagance and a family mystery she's eager to
unravel. She could never imagine where it will lead: a white wedding, a
golden dragon and a red pool of blood.
Embroiled in suspicion and danger, Morrigan leaps head first into a
murder investigation, while also grappling with her ever-growing
Wundersmith powers. And although her friends are there to help, she
fears that could change if they learn she's keeping a terrible secret
of her own.
As shadowy forces awaken in Nevermoor, can Morrigan find a killer and
solve the mystery in her own past ... before the clock strikes midnight?
