Jane and David Vincent are glamourists celebrating their honeymoon in Belgium when Napoleon escapes his exile. The deposed emperor's return plunges Europe into chaos, trapping the newlyweds far from England with no clear path home. Trust becomes impossible as loyalties shift around them. The situation turns desperate when enemy forces capture David. Jane faces an agonizing choice. She must risk everything to free her husband, drawing on her most dangerous magical abilities.
