And some will kill to protect this painting, which hides an extraordinary secret from a past age. They’ll join a team of dragons, Fae gamblers and thieves, so their greatest challenge may be one another. But in return for the book, they must steal a painting from twenty-first-century Vienna. This is held by Mr Nemo, secretive Fae villain and antique dealer, so Irene and Kai travel to his Caribbean retreat to strike a deal.
