Kell, one of the last Antari, possesses a unique ability to traverse parallel Londons: Red, Grey, White, and the now-lost Black. Raised in Arnes—Red London—he serves the Maresh Empire as an ambassador, navigating the tumultuous regime changes in White London and the mundane court of George III in the magic-less London. However, Kell also engages in smuggling, offering glimpses of magical worlds to those willing to pay, a risky endeavor that leads to dire consequences. After a smuggling deal goes wrong, Kell escapes to Grey London, where he encounters Delilah Bard, a cunning cut-purse with grand ambitions. She robs him, saves him from a deadly foe, and insists on joining him for an adventure across worlds. As they navigate perilous magic and lurking treachery, their survival becomes intertwined with the fate of all worlds.
