CORNELIUS QUAINT is on a mission to find his daughter Constance; despite being unaware of where she may be, what she may look like or even if she is still alive. MADAME DESTINE is determined to prevent him, for her visions have warned her of the sorrow that will follow should the conjuror be successful in his quest.

Cornelius Quaint has performed many great feats in the past, but in this volume of the Chronicles he is found to be unprepared, unarmed and completely out of his depth.
