It’s not easy being magic-less in a magical world…fortunately not all jobs require the ability to enchant.
Amy is carving a name for herself as a world class snoop. Want dirt on the governor’s daughter? Amy’s got it covered. Information on the Duke’s enemies? Fees apply. Facts on the magic thieves known as the Underground? Well, no. You’ll have to hire a hero for that.
Unfortunately, by the time Bernard, an Invoker from the inner-city and also her brother, comes knocking on her door the heroes have all been murdered. Bernard needs Amy to figure out why the assassin's are killing off some of the city's most important people, and why. Not the easiest task for someone with no fighting skills and no magical powers to defend herself with. Amy turns the job down.
At least she does until the Underground starts threatening Amy's own friends. As the body count rises, Amy has no choice but to try and stop them once and for all. The more she investigates, the more she suspects it may not be just the Underground at fault. Amy must figure out the truth before its too late, but the truth itself might be enough to destroy her.
