Twins Penelope and Persephone view their upcoming London debuts differently. Pen longs for the balls and parties; Persy wishes to stay home and continue secretly studying magic. A kidnapping, love spell, and royal friendship ensure that nothing goes as planned. Doyle's pairing of the charms of high society with those of witchcraft generates a lighthearted tale of romance and intrigue.
