Some fled the Old World to avoid war and some fled to leave behind magic. But even the fiercely regulated New World with its ranks and standards and emphasis on decorum cannot avoid the power that wells up in certain people and influences weather and calls down storms. So the Weather Witches those who can control the weather are hunted by Testers and Wraiths and made to power the Grounded population's ships, their lights their every luxury in a time before either steam or electricity takes hold. Jordan Astraea, a high-ranking member of The Nine is from a flawless background with seemingly no taint of magic or witchery. But on the night of her seventeenth birthday celebration the Wraiths and the Tester appear and blame her for summoning an unscheduled storm. Taken from her family and near-boyfriend, Rowen, Jordan is sentenced to be Made to become a Conductor and be enslaved as a living battery for an airship. But breaking Jordan may prove the very thing the carefully constructed New World society cannot survive. And the chance of losing Jordan forever may make Rowen become the hero he would have never dared otherwise be.
