El Londres de la Regencia, políticos y taumaturgos tratan de ocultar un secreto a voces: la magia inglesa está desapareciendo.

Tan solo Prunella intentará ayudarlo. Aunque, sinceramente, el destino de Inglaterra trae a Prunella sin cuidado. Sus objetivos son más cercanos y acuciantes: asegurarse una posición sin fortuna ni familia, y con un exceso de magia inaceptable en una mujer.
