This title offers a rip-roaring steam-punk adventure that will have
you one the edge of your seat to the very last page. In 1880 women
are not allowed to vote, much less dress up in costume and fight
crime. But twenty-year-old socialite Sarah Stanton still dreams of
becoming a hero. Her opportunity arrives in tragedy when the leader
of the Society of Paragons, New York's greatest team of gentlemen
adventures, is murdered right before her eyes. To uncover the truth
behind the assassination, Sarah joins forces with the amazing
mechanical man known as Automaton. Together they unmask a
conspiracy at the heart of the Paragons that reveals the world of
heroes and high society is built on a crumbling foundation of greed
and lies. When Sarah comes face-to-face with the megalomaniacal
villain behind the murder, she must discover if she has the courage
to sacrifice her life of privilege and save her mechanical mate.
"The Falling Machine" takes place in a Victorian New York
transfixed by the discovery of 'Fortified Steam' a substance that
allows ordinary men to wield extraordinary power and which can
corrupt even the strongest. The secret behind this amazing
substance is something that evil men will gladly kill for and one
that the redoubtable Sarah must try and protect no matter what the
cost.
