The Scourge is a catastrophic, ancient power of unknown origin that was present at the first emergence/ evolution of the Seerkind. When they left their mutual garden home it reacted to their abandonment violently and slew them by the hundreds if not thousands. When its quarry vanished from sight into the rug, the Scourge returned to their ancestral garden to stand guard over the rest of time.

Called to the Fugue's defence is Suzanna Parrish, the granddaughter of the last Custodian, even though she is entirely ignorant of magic and the Seerkind. But the first to find the Fugue is ordinary young professional Calhoun Mooney, who sees in it the Wonderland he's dreamed of since childhood. At that point, a story full of wonders and terrors begins... Ragtag Bunch of Misfits: The task of saving the Fugue from Immacolata and Shadwell falls to Cal, Suzanna, and a small group of Seerkind ne'erdowells and petty criminals who argue incessantly, even about whether or not the Fugue ought to be saved.
