City of Dark Magic: A Novel (City of Dark Magic Series)

Cosmically fast-paced, wildly imaginative, and withÂ City of Lost Dreamsâ€”the bewitching sequelâ€”on shelves now, City of Dark Magic is the perfect potion of magic and suspense
Â
Once a city of enormous wealth and culture, Prague was home to emperors, alchemists, astronomers, and, as itâ€™s whispered, hell portals. When music student Sarah Weston lands a summer job at Prague Castle cataloging Beethovenâ€™s manuscripts, she has no idea how dangerous her life is about to become.Â Prague is a threshold,Â Sarah is warned,Â and it is steeped in blood.

Soon after Sarah arrives, strange things begin to happen. She learns that her mentor, who was working at the castle, may not have committed suicide after all. Could his cryptic notes be warnings? As Sarah parses his clues about Beethovenâ€™s â€œImmortal Beloved,â€ she manages to get arrested, to have tantric sex in a public fountain, and to discover a time-warping drug. She also catches the attention of a four-hundred-year-old dwarf, the handsome Prince Max, and a powerful U.S. senator with secrets she will do anything to hide.

And the story continues in City of Lost Dreams, the mesmerizing sequel, which finds Sarah in the heart of Vienna, embroiled in a new web of mystical secrets and treacherous lies.
