A Mage by Any Other Name

Mary's new job with Wizard Williwim is perfect. Through gainful employment and access to the classified central library, she hopes to discover a route to the respect and approval she yearns for. For years she's attempted one plan after another, and this one appears to be working.

But Mary's life has never been that easy. When an enemy from her past reappears to endanger everything she has nearly achieved, she has to decide whether to confess some dangerous secrets she's been hiding.

A tricky choice, when those secrets could lead to her and Williwim being cast out of the district...or being very, very dead.
