The grand adventure continues in George Mann's Newbury
& Hobbes steampunk mystery series, as a Victorian
special agent races across a continent to save his beloved's
life on board The Revenant Express. Sir Maurice Newbury is bereft as his trusty assistant
Veronica Hobbes lies dying with a wounded heart. Newbury and
Veronica's sister Amelia must take a sleeper train across
Europe to St. Petersberg to claim a clockwork heart that
Newbury has commissioned from Faberge to save Veronica from
a life trapped in limbo. No sooner do they take off then sinister goings-on start to
plague the train, and it is discovered that an old villain,
thought dead, is also on board and seeking revenge. Can
Newbury and Amelia defeat him and get the clockwork organ
back to the Fixer in time to save Veronica? And can they do
so without Newbury going so far into the dark side of occult
magic that he can never return? Meanwhile, Sir Charles Bainbridge is the only one of their
team left in London to struggle with a case involving a
series of horrific crimes. Someone is kidnapping prominent
men and infecting them with the Revenant plague, leaving
them chained in various locations around the city. But why? It's a rousing chase to save both London and Veronica. Will
these brave detectives be up to the task?
