About this listen

London, 1890. The city is ruled by the nobility and the Watch, or so it seems. When an underground organization pursues the alchemical formula to create a soul, bodies begin to pile up, and important figures begin to go missing. Masked men turn the gears of fate, pushing London into a new era where artificial life is only the beginning.

Arhyen is the self-declared finest thief in London. The mission was simple. Steal a journal from Fairfax Breckinridge, one of the greatest alchemists of the time. He hadn't expected to find Fairfax himself, with a dagger in his back, nor had he expected his automaton daughter, Liliana.

Suddenly entrenched in a mystery too great for him to fully comprehend, he must rely on the help of a wayward detective, and an automaton who claims she has a soul, to piece together the clues laid before them.

Will Arhyen uncover the true source of Liliana's soul in time, or will London plunge into a dark age of nefarious technology, where only the scientific will survive?

Sara C. Roethle is a strong favourite of mine. Having first come across, her 'Tree Of Ages' series.
Unfortunately, I am struggling, to finish, reading, the last book, in that series. Due to my health. Audible doesn't have it.
Therefore, I thought I would try, this series.
I wasn't disappointed. I love her style.
I have already purchased, the next book, in the set ❣️🙂😎

Loved it!
