 Magical potions power Victorian Paris, airships and mechanical inventions reshape the Edwardian world, and classic literary monsters get second chances at love. Sharp-tongued heroines and gentle, unconventional heroes collide over spy missions, confidence schemes, and mad science experiments, finding their way to each other through wit, danger, and hard-won trust.
