Magic is dangerous—but love is more dangerous still. When sixteen-year-old Tessa Gray travels to England to find her brother during Queen Victoria's reign, she encounters a terrifying world in London’s Downworld, populated by vampires, warlocks, and other supernatural beings. The Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to eliminating demons, strive to maintain order in this chaos. Captured by the Dark Sisters, members of a secret organization called The Pandemonium Club, Tessa discovers she is a Downworlder with a rare ability: the power to transform into another person at will. The Magister, the shadowy leader of the Club, seeks to exploit her power. Alone and pursued, Tessa finds refuge with the Shadowhunters of the London Institute, who promise to help her find her brother if she aids them with her abilities. She becomes captivated by two best friends: James, whose delicate beauty conceals a dark secret, and Will, whose sharp wit and unpredictable nature keep others at a distance—except for Tessa. As they delve into a sinister plot threatening the Shadowhunters, Tessa realizes she may have to choose between rescuing her brother and assisting her new friends in saving the world, discovering that love may be the most perilous magic of all.
