Cairo, 1912: magic has reshaped the world—and danger lurks in every shadow.
Agent Fatma el-Sha’arawi, the youngest operative at the Ministry of Alchemy, Enchantments, and Supernatural Entities, thought she’d seen it all. But when a secret brotherhood is slaughtered by someone claiming to be al-Jahiz—the legendary man who first unleashed magic upon the world—Fatma is thrust into a case that could ignite a global catastrophe.
Armed with sharp wit, sharper suits, and unexpected allies from her past, Fatma must uncover the truth behind the imposter… before Cairo falls into chaos.
