Description

Nothing goes better with tea and crumpets than corpses and monsters. ************ The final round of Benedict's twisted game begins, and Trinket and Booker are given their first clue: a corpse with a number carved into its head. As they search for a meaning behind the strange message, more bodies begin to surface, attracting the attention of less-than-savory characters. In order to keep Scales from beating them to the finish line, Trinket and Booker must make friends and enemies alike in their race to break the morbid code. However, the closer they get to finding the madman who started this insanity, the more uncertain Trinket becomes of her place in Booker's life. And with the very real threat of her past sins coming to light, she's willing to do almost anything to avoid losing the man she loves. That is, if she can keep from being dragged back to Elysium. It's JANE EYRE meets FRANKENSTEIN in this YA mystery series with a steampunk flair. Sequel to THE VAMPIRE OF TINKERFALL. Bonus novella: AH, POOR BIRD Warning: this story involves mental illness and has scenes depicting anxiety attacks and PTSD, as well as suicidal thoughts.
