A Matter of Blood

Nothing will stop Alice and Nora from being together. Not even a disapproving mother.

It takes little effort to save the world from power-obsessed madmen when you've been doing it for years. For once, however, it's not an artifact hunt that has Alice Mortensen vexed. It's her beloved Nora's mother, Lady Spurlock.

With their dissimilar Aetheric natures called into question, Alice and Nora undertake a journey halfway around the world for answers. Whether by railway, steamer, or airship, Alice and Nora will not rest until they can allay Lady Spurlock's concerns about their union.

Nor will they realize the unimaginable discovery or danger to which their inquiries will lead until a chance meeting leads to a long overdue reunion…

All our heroines want is a happy ending, but will they encounter too much danger—and not enough cake—to save the day in the finale to their unlikely adventures?
