Luck is its own kind of magic, in this first book in an electrifying new contemporary fantasy series from the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Hollows novels.Petra Grady has known since adolescence that she has no talent for magic-and thats never going to change. But as a sweeper first-class, shes parlayed her rare ability to handle dross-the damaging, magical waste generated by her more talented kins spellwork-into a decent life working at the mages university.Except Gradys relatively predictable life is about to be upended. When the oblivious, sexy, and oh-so-out-of-reach Benedict Strom needs someone with her abilities for a research project studying dross and how to render it harmless, shes stuck working on his team-whether she wants to or not.Only Benedict doesnt understand the characteristics of dross like Grady does. After an unthinkable accident, she and Benedict are forced to go on the run to seek out the one person who might be able to help: an outcast exiled ten years ago for the crime of using dross to cast spells. Now Grady must decide whether to stick with the magical status quo or embrace her own hidden talents . . . and risk shattering their entire world.
