**A Steampunked Romantic Comedy **
Two years ago Thaddeus Carmichael disappeared. To be expected really, given his history.
A year ago, both sons of Jaqueline Carmichael became gravely ill.
Now a man who was burned at the stake six years ago arrives in town. He was executed for being one of the leaders of an inquisition that terrorized the land of Lailoya. Thaddeus was responsible for this, but the man isn't seeking revenge. He's seeking the talisman Thaddeus used.
There’s an ancient curse on that talisman that extracts a grave cost for its benefits. The cost to Jaqueline will be the lives of her two boys. The cost to everybody else will be equally grave.
The only way to break this curse is to find Thaddeus and destroy the Talisman.Jaqueline is going to need her friends Alexander and Isadore Hangmoor to help her, but it's going to take more than just friends.
It’s going to take a lot of guile, a lot of grit and an airship or two.
