Yet behind these dramatic scenes, another war is raging - a war that will determine not just the fate of nations but of humanity itself...

Just such a mission has brought Quare to the London townhouse of eccentric collector, Lord WichcoteHe seeks a pocket watch rumoured to possess seemingly impossible properties that are more to do with magic than with any science familiar to Quare or to his superiors. And the strange
timepiece has attracted the attention of others as well: the mysterious masked thief known only as Grimalkin, and a deadly French spy who stop at nothing to bring the prize back to his mastersSoon Quare finds himself on a dangerous trail of intrigue and murder that leads far from the world he knows into an otherwhere of dragons and demigods, in which nothing is as it seems . . . time least of all.
