Summary
Agatha did not know she was the daughter of William Heterodyne and Lucrezia Mongfish. She thought she was the beloved ward of Lady Teodora Vodenicharova, and the unexpected but equally beloved companion of Lord Saturnus Heterodyne.
Agatha did not know that the debilitating headaches that earned her the scorn and (worse) the pity of her fellow Mechanicsburgers were caused by the locket her uncle gave her. She thought she was stupid, useless, and broken.
Now she knows she is Lady Agatha Heterodyne, rightful ruler of Mechanicsburg. Now she knows she is a Spark.
When she learns the truth, Agatha inadvertently kicks off a series of events that reopens old wounds, drags secrets into the light, and brings war to the doorstep of the all but defenseless Mechanicsburg. Saturnus struggles to crush his enemies with a town almost as broken as his body; Agatha, determined to undo the chaos she's unleashed, plunges into the depths of Castle Heterodyne.
Raised by a literal saint and the devil incarnate, Agatha - with an unleashed mind, a burning spark, and a band of very unexpected allies - will fight to do the unthinkable: be a good Heterodyne and a good person.
