简介
"Ex-spy ‘Belle Boyd’ is retired – more or less. Retired from spying on the
Confederacy anyway. Her short-lived marriage to a Union navy boy cast
suspicion on those Southern loyalties, so her mid-forties found her
unemployed, widowed and disgraced. Until her life-changing job offer from the
staunchly Union Pinkerton Detective Agency.
When she’s required to assist Abraham Lincoln himself, she has to put any old
loyalties firmly aside – for a man she spied against twenty years ago.
Lincoln’s friend Gideon Bardsley, colleague and ex-slave, is targeted for
assassination after the young inventor made a breakthrough. Fiddlehead,
Bardsley’s calculating engine, has proved the world is facing an extraordinary
threat. Meaning it's not the time for civil war.
Now Bardsley and Fiddlehead are in great danger as forces conspire to keep
this potentially unifying secret, the war moving and the money flowing. With
spies from both camps gunning for her, can even the notorious Belle Boyd hold
the war-hawks at bay?
Cherie Priest has been hailed as 'the High Priestess of Steampunk' - and you
can see why in this latest wonderfully written adventure."
