Mabel Rushforth hides from the mighty Sorcerer's Guild as secretary to a has-been detective and. She is Entwined - threads of magic run beneath her skin, and the Guild would trap her in service. But Mabel has a plan to escape the Guild's reach with her fiancé - all she needs do it track down a mysterious artefact to claim the bounty, and leave the city forever. But quickly her sisters - Pretoria, a quick-witted sorceress and thief, recently emerged from exile, and Madge - a guild mage to the core - appear to make equally unwelcome offers.
