INCLUDES AUTHOR INTERVIEW.
But navigating the tumultuous landscape of Fae politics will take more than Irene\'s book-smarts and fast-talking--to ward off Armageddon, she might have to sacrifice everything she holds dear....
To keep humanity from getting caught in the crossfire, Irene will have to team up with a local Fae leader to travel deep into a version of Venice filled with dark magic, strange coincidences, and a perpetual celebration of Carnival--and save her friend before he becomes the first casualty of a catastrophic war.

But when her apprentice, Kai--a dragon of royal descent--is kidnapped by the Fae, her carefully crafted undercover operation begins to crumble.
Working in an alternate version of Victorian London, Librarian-spy Irene has settled into a routine, collecting important fiction for the mysterious Library and blending in nicely with the local culture.
The written word is mightier than the sword--most of the time...
