My father taught me that myths were real, but it wasn't until they tried to kill me that I believed him. Ambrose Davids - young, ambitious, disgraced - wants nothing more than to get his life back in order. When a mysterious woman from an unnamed Council offers him a silver whistle and an impossible mission, he's desperate enough to take the job. With his landlord breathing down his neck and a police detective suspecting him of murder, Ambrose falls headfirst into a world he had never believed possible - a world in which mythical creatures are real - and one which forces him to question everything he thought he knew. From London's dark alleys and the high streets of Paris to the ancient ruins of Rome, Ambrose must rely on his wits, and his luck, to survive long enough to become the hunter instead of the hunted. Join him on his adventures as he tries to uncover the secrets behind the hidden Repository and the magical creatures confined within it!
