|summary=A mysterious red object, a cursed friend and a set of powerful, unscrupulous enemies. Sometimes Camden shop owner and diviner, Alex Verus, wishes he hadn't got out of bed. He may be able to see into the future, but occasionally it would be useful to know what to do about it.
}}
Alex Verus runs a little shop in Camden, London selling magic tricks and bits and pieces. Some of the bits and pieces are a more magical than the magic tricks, for he is a diviner (someone who sees the future). Indeed, the day that his friend Luna finds a little red artefact, his ability comes in handy. There are some very powerful people looking for that little red 'thing'. Unfortunately they aren't powerful in a nice way and they're a jump or two ahead of Alex and Luna. For the powerful ones actually know what it is.
