Fantasy Steampunk
A Steampunk adventure novel set in the fictional city of New
Pittsburgh. New Pittsburgh in 1898, a crucible of invention and
intrigue, the hub of American industry at the height of its
steam-driven power. Born from the ashes of devastating fire,
flood and earthquake, New Pittsburgh is ruled by the shadow
government of The Oligarchy. In the abandoned mine tunnels
beneath the city, supernatural creatures hide from the
light, emerging to feed in the smoky city known as 'hell
with the lid off.' Jake Desmet and Rick Brand, heirs to the Brand & Desmet
Import Company, travel the world to secure treasures and
unusual items for the collections of wealthy patrons,
accompanied by Jake's cousin, Veronique 'Nicki' LeClercq .
Smuggling a small package as a favor for a Polish witch
should have been easy. But when hired killers come after
Jake and a Ripper-style killer leaves the city awash in
blood, Jake, Rick and Nicki realize that dark magic, vampire
power struggles and industrial sabotage are just a prelude
to a bigger plot that threatens New Pittsburgh and the
world. Stopping that plot will require every ounce of Jake's
courage, every bit of Rick's cunning, every scintilla of
Nicki's bravura and all the steampowered innovation imaginable.
