Fantasy. Fiction. Historical Fiction. HTML:Proper Regency ladies are not supposed to become magicians�but Miss Abigail Wilder is far from proper. The marriageable young ladies of London are dying mysteriously, and Abigail Wilder intends to discover why. Abigail's father, the Lord Sorcier of England, believes that a dark lord of faerie is involved. But while Abigail is willing to match her magic against Lord Longshadow, neither her father nor high society believes that she is capable of doing so. Thankfully, Abigail is not the only one investigating the terrible events. Mercy, a street rat and self-taught magician, insists on joining Abigail in unraveling the mystery. Mercy is unpredictable, and her magic is strange and foreboding�but the greatest danger she poses may well be to Abigail's heart. A queer romantic faerie tale of defiant hope and love against all odds, set in Olivia Atwater's enchanting version of Regency England.

I loved it." �Alix E. Harrow "A perfect historical fantasy romance: Warm, sparkling with magic, dangerous, and delightful." �Tasha Suri .… (meer)

As the adopted daughter of the Lord Sorcier, Abigail has always been around Faeries and magic. What most of society doesn't know is that Abigail is a powerful magic wielder herself. When young women of the ton start dying with their western windows open, the Lord Sorcier suspects Faeries may be involved and Abigail is determined to help him investigate. Along the way she meets another young woman, Mercy, with magical abilities who is also investigating the deaths. While their approaches clash initially, Abigail and Mercy each have knowledge the other needs and as they continue to investigate, they'll discover they might have more in common than they thought.

This whole series has been a delight and the final installment is no exception. Abigail is a lovely character to spend time with and her growth as both a person and a wielder of magic is lovely to behold. Her relationship with Mercy is also charming as all get out. And there are cameos from characters from previous books in the series, which adds extra delight to the returning reader. If you've read the first two books, you should definitely pick up this final entry. (

The best of the series so far, I think! I liked that characters from the previous two books made appearances. As usual, the author takes some liberties with Regency culture, but those probably won't bother people who aren't history geeks, and this book spends less time with the human side of things than either of the previous two, so it's a bit less noticeable. All in all a really cute little story I enjoyed! (

Abigail, adopted daughter of the Lord Sorcier of England and his half-souled wife Theodora, had a season in London but was made wretched by the other young ladies her age, so after 3 of her contemporaries have died untimely she's not moved by sympathy to investigate their deaths, but by desire to help her father and use her skills, when she meets the mysterious Mercy, whose appearance as a laundry woman is one of many deceptions, and when she gets new knowledge of the slaugh the possibilities don't narrow, they widen.
