Fantasy Steampunk
Evil is most assuredly afoot--and Britain's fate rests in
the hands of an alluring renegade...and a librarian. These are dark days indeed in Victoria's England. Londoners
are vanishing, then reappearing, washing up as corpses on
the banks of the river Thames, drained of blood and bone.
Yet the Ministry of Peculiar Occurrences-- the Crown's
clandestine organization whose area of expertise is the
strange and unsettling--will not allow its agents to
investigate. But fearless and exceedingly lovely heroin,
Eliza D. Braun, with her bulletproof corset and disturbing
fondness for dynamite, refuses to let the matter remain
unquestioned. And she's prepared to do whatever it takes,
including dragging her timid new partner, librarian
Wellington Books, along with her into the perilous fray. A malevolent brotherhood is operating in the deepening
London shadows, intent upon the enslavement of all Britons.
And this dynamic duo of Books and Braun--Wellington with his
encyclopedic brain, and Eliza with her remarkable
devices--must get to the twisted roots of a most nefarious
plot...or see England fall to the Phoenix.
