In an alternate 1920s, America’s 18th Amendment outlaws both alcohol and spellcraft–the technology once used to power modern American lives. While the Practical Scientists have stepped in with their new technology, Arcanists won’t go down without a fight, and continue to trade spellcraft and crafting materials to keep the art alive.
Emily Trent has grown up in a Practical household, never once thinking of Arcane Science. That is, until her older sister Amelia is murdered! An unsent letter in a hidden spellcrafting kit connects Amelia to the Black Ball, New York’s most infamous speakeasy and spellcraft market. Now Emily must dive into the world of spell slingers and rum runners to find the truth! The only problem is no one knows if, or when, the moving party of Black Ball will show up next!
