~ 8-Time Staff Pick Featured Novel~
~*~
Political, Social, and Period DRAMA set in a stacked FANTASY city in a vaguely French Rococo + French Revolution era, which features Mobs, Noble Socialites, swanky parties, Pirates, street-fights, and some citizens with varying degrees of magical powers, all vying to steady (steal) the wobbling power balance as some unknown force from the city's caverns is revolting.
Caught in the middle is, Ophelia --a for-hire decomposer for the Mob and hides scandals big and small for all of the city. Despite having some of the city's most powerful allies (and some a little more than 'friendly'); she struggles to decipher who is actually on her side, and who just wants the secrets she knows.
