Sixteen-year-old Lily is plunged into the world of the City's unseen, inhuman inhabitants; an ancient prophecy concerning Lily and "eerily beautiful" Regan is coming to pass. The historically distinct City of London, surrounded by an ancient Roman wall, is a perfect setting for Inglis's credible blending of the mythological and modern. Readers will be eager for the clearly projected sequel.
