Alex Verus has a magic shop in Camden, London, and an uncanny ability to see the future. But suddenly everyone can see Alex's future. Because the Mage's Council of Great Britain just named him a traitor and ordered his death in seven days' time, and there's no way anyone can get out of that.

Alex's friends - Luna and the other apprentices he's taken in - are tainted by association. They'll be marked for death, too, when the ruling comes into play, and Alex becomes locked in a race against time to save them. But with only seven days to work with, will he have time left over save his own skin?

Critic reviews

"A deft, thrill-ride of an urban fantasy - a stay-up-all-night read." (Patricia Briggs on Fated)
"Harry Dresden would like Alex Verus tremendously - and be a little nervous around him. I just added Benedict Jacka to my must-read list." (Jim Butcher, author of the Dresden Files)
"Whoop-ass excitement from the new master of magical London." (Charles Stross on Chosen)

This is hands down the best book in the Alex Verus series so far, and the ending just makes me long for my next monthly credit so I can hear what happens next. The suspence in this book is incredible!

Best book in the series so far!

I think this one is the best so far. Finally the author stepped into the raw, rough, and harsh.
