About this series
A Steampunked Romantic Comedy
Two years ago Thaddeus Carmichael disappeared. To be expected really, given his history.
A year ago, both sons of Jaqueline Carmichael became gravely ill.
Now a man who was burned at the stake six years ago arrives in town. He was executed for being one of the leaders of an inquisition that terrorized the land of Lailoya. Thaddeus was responsible for this, but the man isn't seeking revenge. He's seeking the talisman Thaddeus used.
There’s an ancient curse on that talisman that extracts a grave cost for its benefits. The cost to Jaqueline will be the lives of her two boys. The cost to everybody else will be equally grave.
The only way to break this curse is to find Thaddeus and destroy the Talisman.Jaqueline is going to need her friends Alexander and Isadore Hangmoor to help her, but it's going to take more than just friends.
It’s going to take a lot of guile, a lot of grit and an airship or two.

A Somewhat Romantic Steampunked Comedy Adventure Magic will get you killed. If its practice doesn’t cause you to spontaneously combust, then the Department of Public Protection will happily ignite you in a safe and predictable manner in a place that endangers nobody. When alchemist Alexander Hancock was commissioned by a suffragette journalist named Isadore Moorcock to help find her father, his answer was no. Risk his life looking for a journalist who’d gone missing while researching a Magic Cult? He had better things to do than that... well... not really... but his answer was still no. That was until he found himself on a train ride to trouble. Now he’ll be lucky to avoid being ignited on one of the Department’s wooden stakes... and being with Isadore isn't so bad, really.
