Synopsis:
When 16 year old Tessa Gray crosses the ocean to find her brother, her destination is England, the time of Queen Victoria, and something terrifying is waiting for her in Lindonâs Downworld, where vampires, warlocks, and other supernatural folk stalk the gaslit streets. Only the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the world of demons, keep order amidst chaos.
Kidnapped by mysterious Dark Sisters, who are members of a secret organization called Pandemonium Club, Tessa soon learns that she herself is a Downworlder with a rare ability: the power to transform, at will, into another person. Whatâs more, the Magister, the shadowy figure who runs the club, will stop at nothing to claim Tessaâs power for his own.
Friendless and hunted, Tessa takes refuge with the Shadowhunters of the London Institute, who swear to find her brother if she will use her power to help them. She soon finds herself fascinated by - and torn between - two best friends: James, whose fragile beauty hides a deadly secret, and blue-eyed Will, whose caustic wit and volatile moods keep everyone in his life at arms length....everyone, that is, except Tessa. As their search draws them deep into the heart of an arcane plot that threatens to destroy the Shadowhunters, Tessa realizes that she may need to choose between saving her brother and helping her new friends save the world ...and that love may be the most dangerous magic of all.
