"Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary - and Quite Deadly..."

Eric Banyon, better known as Bedlam's Bard, is finally about to graduate from Julliard and enter the Real World and so, with the help of a psychiatrist who specializes in the problems of magicians, he's finally coming to terms with his past.

And for some reason, she's after Eric as well.
