Summary
Hazel Hughes has spent her life believing she is a Medium - someone who can talk to ghosts. But as of yet, that skill has remained frustratingly elusive. She is also suffering from a reoccurring childhood dream of someone who looks almost exactly like Hazel, but this dream version of herself is slowly going mad.
Sam MacInnes is a talented surgeon who runs in the highest social circles thanks to his family's position and history. When Sam hires Hazel to assist him with his medical practice, he is immediately drawn to her intelligence, wit, and beauty. Their potential relationship is derailed one evening when a mysterious count arrives in London and reveals to Hazel the truth about her past: she was abducted at birth and her twin sister has fallen dangerously ill.
Hazel agrees to travel to Romania with Count Petrescu in order to save her sister, and Sam insists on accompanying her. The count has secrets, though, and the journey grows more sinister with every mile that draws Hazel closer to her homeland. Even as her feelings for Sam become deeper and more complicated, she fears she might not survive the quest to save her sister with her heart intact, not to mention her life. She must learn to draw on gifts she doesn't know she has if they are going to ever return home again.
Hazel and Sam must fight their way past dark magic, clockwork beasts, and their own insecurities as they try to reach her sister in the impenetrable Coppergate Tower before time runs out.

Another great story from this author
I actually listened to book 4 before this one, but it doesn't really matter too much, although it's probably better to read them in sequence. I really enjoyed this one just as much as the other three. They are all really gripping, intriguing stories,with strong heroines and honourable and caring heroes. My one criticism is the Americanisms that creep into the story whose characters are supposed to originate from Victorian London. Two examples being the term 'holidays' for Christmas. In the UK, 'holidays' refer to what in the U.S. would be a 'vacation' and not to Christmas. (In the Victorian era, it might also have been referred to as 'Yuletide'.) Also in the wedding scene, The groom watches his bride as she approaches, but in the UK the groom never faces the bride as she is walking down the aisle, but has his back to her - although personally, I prefer the American way! These niggles apart, I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I love the way the author takes the main object in the story ( a 'monster' with a secret, a spindle, a shoe or slipper, and long hair) and weaves each into a story that is completely her own. I hope she writes some more steampunk type stories, love her writing style.

Really enjoyed it!
I wasn’t sure how it was going to end when it got to the castle and stuff started happening but it was a clever twist and again there were such sweet characters that it was so lovely to hear them develop and interact with each other!

The Book was ok
This is the third book in the series & it's the first time I've really wanted to get to the end.
The main female character was really annoying. I know it was how the story flowed but I didn't enjoy it.
I'm hoping the fourth book in the series will be better.
