Having survived the tragic and deadly events of Greenwood, the young Indian apprentice stows away on board a ship bound for London, where her new, sometimes dangerous adventure begins. Along the way, living in the homeland of the English, she takes on more roles than she ever could have imagined. She becomes a companion and a spectacle, a nursemaid and a mascot, a captive 'genie', an annalist, and, finally, her heart's dream - an apothecary.

In the town of Greenwood, in the year 1680, the line between miracle and mystery and between magic and medicine is blurred beyond all distinction. In this year of misfortune, four outcasts - a vilified midwife, her child apprentice, a barren woman, and an unloved daughter - find their fates inextricably entwined.

In the explosive series finale, the fire sign capital, Fiamma, takes center stage. Paragons retain strongholds here and in the earth territories. In this volatile and corrupt atmosphere, Nina Solaris enters to shake things up. Initiating a project to change Paragon purity by introducing pheromones from other signs, Nina uses her talents as a chemist and perfume designer to turn the orderly world of Astrogea upside down and shatter its illusions of purity forever.

In The Currents of Scorpio, the water sign territories have succumbed to the Paragons. There's a new administration, new restrictions, and a new danger lurking in the minds of the men who hold the reins of power in government. And on eerie, isolated Triton Isle, there are those who seek power from another, otherworldly source. A storm is coming.... In the middle of the maelstrom is Brooke Otto, a Cuspian who brings the fury of water and air together in one extraordinary being.

The turmoil on Astrogea continues in Book 2 with the story of Jade Winter, a smart and tough entrepreneur who decides to stir things up inside the old stone walls of her exclusive nightclub. When she decides, just to be edgy, to encourage patrons to dress up as other signs and explore outside their elemental group, she finds that some Astrogeans will go to great lengths to keep the signs from interacting - even for fun. As tension between the signs begins to build in the run-up to Astrogea’s Winter Games, Jade finds that she can’t trust anyone - not even her own eyes.

On an Earth-like planet called Astrogea, people are tattooed at birth with their zodiac signs, which dictate how they look, where they live and with whom they associate. This categorization has resulted in some hostilities between people of different signs or groups of signs, but no one is more disdained than the Cuspians—those born between signs who don’t strongly identify with either. Astrogean private investigator Margo Ramm is summoned by Dermot Justice, a wealthy, ailing politician, to find some priceless pieces of art that have gone missing from his home. As Margo investigates, she finds that there may have been greater crimes committed than art theft—perhaps even a murder.
