Wanneer historicus Diana Bishop in de Bodleian-bibliotheek in Oxford per toeval een betoverd alchemistisch manuscript opent, dringt er ongewild magie binnen in haar zorgvuldig alledaags gehouden leven. Hoewel ze van een oud heksengeslacht afstamt, wil ze met die familie-erfenis absoluut niets te maken hebben. Maar Diana merkt dat ze de wereld van magie niet meer op afstand kan houden. Verschillende wezens geloven dat het manuscript belangrijke aanwijzingen bevat over verleden en toekomst, en ze willen weten hoe Diana haar hand heeft weten te leggen op het ongrijpbare boekwerk. Onder hen is de vampier Matthew Clairmont, een geneticus met een passie voor Darwin. Diana en Matthew beginnen samen aan een zoektocht om de geheimen van het manuscript te ontrafelen. Maar de relatie die zich tussen de eeuwenoude vampier en de ontwakende heks ontwikkelt, dreigt te knagen aan de fragiele vrede die al zo lang tussen bovennatuurlijke wezens en mensen bestaat, en zet ook Diana's wereld op zijn kop.
