All wizards are evil. Elizabeth has known this truth ever since she could remember. After all, she grew up in one of Ostermere\'s Great Libraries, surrounded by works of magic - dangerous magical grimoires that whisper on the shelves and clink with iron chains. One careless move and the grimoire turns into a deadly monster of ink and leather. When a sabotage unleashes the Library\'s most sinister grimoire, Elizabeth is accused of a crime. An orphan with no connections or support, she has no choice but to turn to her sworn enemy, the sorcerer Nathaniel Thorne, and his demonic servant for help in unravelling the centuries-old conspiracy.
