The dark and thrilling sequel to the book "Kirkus" called, "Harry Potter, Alice in Wonderland, and Inkheart all rolled into one" Alice has her first adventure outside Geryon's library after he volunteers her to work with five other apprentice Readers, including Isaac, to capture a rogue apprentice who murdered his master. But none of them realize that the library of the late rival Reader is still a working deadly labyrinth, or that the vicious guardian is still protecting it. As they face the fight of their lives, Alice learns much more about Isaac, Geryon (her own master), and the fate of her father. "Wexler is an able builder of magical worlds and creatures, with labyrinths, an enchanted library, and a feisty, swashbuckling heroine at the center. A story rich in action and allegory fantasy fans will want to hang on for what comes next." "Kirkus Reviews""

但這次，更大的考驗卻在書本外。一位老讀者慘遭自己的學徒謀殺，愛麗絲與其他五位學徒奉命前往兇手潛藏的圖書館執行逮捕。對愛麗絲而言，這個任務意義非凡，因為被殺的老讀者正是與爸爸失蹤密切相關的「水之伊掃」，而行兇的學徒雅各很可能是她最後的線索。

但愛麗絲想都沒想到，伊掃的圖書館竟是個由橋樑與高塔交織而成的恐怖迷宮，不但變幻莫測，還處處埋伏著凶惡的魔物。在找到真相之前，她早已落入迷宮的守護者「折磨」所佈下的致命陷阱裡……
