Dr Sabian Blake - astronomer, scientist, and master of the Kabbalah - is in possession of the Nemorensis, an ancient leather-bound book which holds the secrets of the universe. Leafing through it one night, he reads a mysterious inscription in the margin: Wormwood - the bright star - shall fall from the sky and many will die from its bitterness. Deciphering this prophecy could prove the key to saving London from a catastrophic fate. But there are others interested in the Nemorensis too - for more sinister reasons.
Blake and his serving maid Agetta Lamian soon become enmeshed in a web of sorcery, as agents of both good and evil battle to possess the book and gain its power. They will face great danger, and must decide who to trust - for the wrong decision could cost them their souls . . .
