An Oxford Holiday

"An Oxford Holiday" is an 8,000 word companion short story for the Ingenious Mechanical Devices series and should be read after The Winter Garden (IMD #2).

After a trying two months at Oxford dealing with miserable classmates and isolation, all Immanuel Winter wants is a peaceful weekend with Adam— two days where they could forget about the impossibilities of their future together.
But when the arrival of a radical female lawyer turns the university upside down, their holiday plans are put in jeopardy.
Will Adam and Immanuel be able to escape the horde of dons descending upon the city or will they be forced to postpone their plans and their future?
