An Alexia Tarabotti novel
Alexia Maccon, now known as the Lady Maccon, awakens in the wee hours
of the mid-afternoon to find her husband, who should be decently asleep
like any normal werewolf, yelling at the top of his lungs. Then he
disappears – leaving her to deal with a regiment of supernatural
soldiers encamped on her doorstep, a plethora of exorcised ghosts, and
an angry Queen Victoria.
But Alexia is armed with her trusty
parasol, the latest fashions, and an arsenal of biting civility. Even
when her investigations take her into the backwater of ugly waistcoats
and Scotland, she is prepared: resurrecting ghosts, exposing a French
spy, and unearthing the mysteries of a stolen Egyptian mummy.
She might even find time to track down her wayward husband, if she feels like it.
