About this listen

Money, a mansion, and a mysterious death? Far from the inheritance she ever expected.

Amethyst Forester is a scientist, not a lady. Benjamin Maker is a lord, trapped in a loveless marriage.

The only thing they have in common is Professor Richards - a genius Aetheric scientist.

When Richards is found dead, Amethyst and Benjamin are put in an impossible situation. They jointly inherit his house, its contents, and the mystery of his murder.

Could the Professor have been killed for one of his experiments? And if so, what if someone’s still looking for it?

If you like your steampunk with a bit of romance sprinkled in and loads of mystery, this Victorian London-era steampunk adventure is the story for you. It's perfect for fans of Charlie N. Holmberg and Honor Raconteur. Grab your copy today!

Unique tale

I was overjoyed when I found a long audio book, not only did it mean lots of listening fun for me, but time for the story evolve and to take twists and turns. I was not disappointed and had not worked the plot out before I was a third of the way in like some books. I did not enjoy the narrator's pitch and choice of 'voices' initially, but as the story went on I noticed that less and less. This book would be suitable for a young adult. I will carry on to book two and see where the story leads us! I received a copy for free to listen to and review.
