In 1855, a young lady's most precious possession is her reputation. Unfortunately, sixteen-year-old Georgia Marsh has lost hers and faces a grim future with no prospects of marriage. Her fortune changes when a mysterious stranger asks her to wear an ancient pendant for a week-a pendant which grants great power, but only for those able to carry it. Most young women would buckle under the burden of such an object, but Georgia has a pure heart. She becomes the pendant's new bearer and the keeper of the awesome power it contains. But a pure heart is little protection against magic transferred through an act of trickery. Tied to an object that won't obey her and won't let her pass it on, Georgia must explore the history of the pendant and unlock the secret of its creation if she is to save herself.
