In 1920s Manhattan, a young fairy godmother is caught in an evil conspiracy to control her sisterhood's magic in a sweeping historical fantasy by the bestselling author of The Vine Witch. Unlike most dreamers, Celeste made it in Hollywood-albeit as a F�e Gardienne in a magical, centuries-old sisterhood. Yet her excitement is tempered by the death of the Gardiennes' leader, making Celeste and her fellow fairy godmother Ana�s caretakers of the sacred elder staff. Charged with returning the ancient relic to Paris, they set off for New York City to catch a steamship to France. But the 1920s Big Apple roars with danger in ways Celeste and Ana�s never anticipated. Upon their arrival, a street urchin steals the staff and disappears into the shadows. When Ana�s taps into her rebellious streak to search for the thief on her own, she falls into the clutches of a mysterious band of kidnappers who are seemingly aware of the magical possibilities the stolen staff can offer. To find Ana�s and retrieve the enchanted heart of the sisterhood, Celeste must rely on her wits, her magic, and her trust in a stranger-even if it means putting her friend at risk.
