In the third book of the Nebula Award-nominated Arcadia Project series, which New York Times bestselling author Seanan McGuire called "exciting, inventive, and brilliantly plotted," Millie Roper has to pull off two impossible heists--with the fate of the worlds in the balance.

“To be honest, some of the magic walked out of my life when Caryl left, and even keeping busy wasn’t always enough to distract me from the loss.”
