The most fun I’ve had with a book this year. Every page is a delight, the worldbuilding is wonderful, and the mystery got its hooks into me from the first chapter * Stuart Turton, author of The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle *
Crackles with invention and surprise-the wondrous gadgetry, the moody settings, the endearing heroine and the struggles she’s endured-and Willberg weaves it all together around a perfectly puzzling locked-room whodunnit * Matthew Sullivan, author of Midnight at the Bright Ideas Bookstore *
A tantalizing, steampunk-flavored mystery… Delicious fun! * Helene Wecker, author of The Golem and the Jinni *
