The Spellbinder by John Booth
The author of Wizards, Jake's War & Inspector Monde does it again.

Laura is a Class A Spellbinder, but nobody has told her yet. Class A's are very rare and each is the equivalent of a regiment or a fleet of ships. They win wars and her existence will shift the balance of power across the world. But a bullet in the head will end her life, just like anybody else. Now she is a target for every foreign assassin and spy in England. When she meets a Healer called Tom she knows her life has changed for ever.

In an alternate 1860, this is an age of adventure and daring heroes. The British Empire is growing, assisted by the power of Military Magic, built on Isaac Newton's Laws of Magic. When enemies strike at Tom and Laura, they find themselves enlisted and sent to an academy of spies. But danger is waiting for them around every corner.

Read the sequel Scotland Hard and Revenge of the Brotherhood also available.
