The Affair at the British Museum

The second in the series starring supernatural detective Shalaby W. Shalaby and his occasionally-useful partner, inventor and man-of-action Byron Fecklace. Someone has been vandalizing animal specimens at the British Museum of Natural History. It falls to our heroes to defend Darwinism, track taxidermy poachers, and utterly defile the venerable halls of learning. Flamethrowers! Occult rituals! Walruses! Vexing secrets and ill-considered plans! These are merely the hallmarks of true crime-fighting genius in this farcical steampunk mystery.
