Tailor, thief, witch. Join Ophelia on one hell of a ride home in this debut novel where the 1990s punk rock scene meets magic and time travel. At the end of Ophelia's journey to prove herself a witch worthy of a coven, another was fated to begin. A botched attempt at teleportation flings her centuries into the future, when all she wished for was to go home. Lost in a 1990s London that’s all too different from what she used to know, new friends and enemies eagerly await her. After all, her quest to witchcraft was none other than stealing the heart of the Lord of Hell, a rather hazardous accessory to keep in one’s handbag. Worse still, upon bumping onto a bard most charming, she puts her own heart on the line. Elsewhere in London, a funeral drags Ethan back to London and its shadows, shadows he left behind centuries ago. The unexpected will of his estranged adoptive father binds him to find who, or rather what managed to finally do what he had dreamt of doing himself many a night. Yet not everything nor everyone is as he left them, and the shadows he once despised may be his only ally. Ophelia’s and Ethan’s intertwined paths won’t only decide their own, but also the fate of Hell.. They just don’t know it yet.
