An invisible speakeasy, flappers and gangsters, hot action, cool jazz — and a whole lot of magic. It's 1927 and trouble is on the horizon, a crisis that has nothing to do with magic. Madame M is looking out for allies, and Pauline is looking out for Madame M. Good thing, too, because there's danger in every corner.
