Bored with life, trapped in a dull job and burdened with a wholly unsuitable boyfriend, 28-year-old Dulcie goes shopping - and finds herself paying for more than she bargained for. The guady enamel dragon that caught her eye is jinxed. After re-classifying the terms fact and fiction, Dulcie dubiously agrees to help him, where with much bickering she's introduced to a World hidden amongst ours. All seems to be going to plan, but moving behind the scenes is a reason why having a dragon in the 21st century is a bonus.
