Sophia Westlake is an Extraordinary Seer, gifted having the ability to see past, present, and future in Dreams and Visions. Her talent led to the destruction of the Caribbean pirates plaguing England’s shipping and delivery and obtained her renown and the accolades of her peers. But when she accuses a prominent politician, Lord Endicott, of embezzling from the Army, her Desire is ‘demonstrated’ fake and she actually is disgraced, her reputation ruined and her career in the Army’s War Office over.

Humiliated, Sophia returns about Wondering View to London, but Lord Endicott comes after her, intention on producing her life progressively miserable. Furious and desperate, Sophia will take the only program left to her: she units out to find Lord Endicott’s criminal corporations, to expose him and bring him to justice.

Sophia’s allies are couple of, but loyal. Cecy, her closest friend, works with Sophia in her goal, while her cousin Female Daphne, an irrepressible Extraordinary Bounder, is usually ready for challenging that will hit at Lord Endicott’s center. And always viewing her is the incomprehensible Mr. Rutledge.

But simply because Sophia delves deeper into prophetic Dreams, Cecy and Daphne begin to fear for Sophia’s health and sanity.
