In the third entry (after Gideon Smith and the Brass Dragon) in this steampunk alternate history series, Gideon is hunting Jack the Ripper when his memory is erased, and he is left wandering in London's seedy underbelly. His only hope lies with journalist Aloysius Bent, airship pilot Rowena Fanshawe, and Maria, the mechanical girl. Perfect for fans of Mark Hodder's "Burton & Swinburne" adventures. Sophie Marshall and her husband, Gray (last seen in The Midnight Queen), have traveled to Alba to study and teach magic at the university. When Gray disappears, Sophie must use her supernatural talents to find him. Another intriguing fantasy set in an alternate history version of Regency-era Europe.
