Elsie Camden is an unregistered spellbreaker. Since has finished working off her debt to spellmaker Bacchus Kelsey. The Cowls continue to send her on missions to break spells. The police come to her door and arrest her for using her skills without being registered. Bacchus tells the magistrate that he knows her well, in fact they are engaged to marry. The magistrate agrees to release Elsie under certain conditions.

There is a murderer killing master spellmakers and stealing their opuses, spellbooks with enchantments they learned over their lifetime. The murderer hits close to home which causes Bacchus and Elsie to work together to solve the mystery before one of their own dies. This is the second book in the series. It is fast paced, characters are well developed, and it is written in the third person point of view. I loved the Paper Magician series, and this book is just as good.
