Elemental Web Chronicles: A Historical Fantasy Box Set
About this ebook
THE GOLDEN SPIDER: Mayhem and murder endanger the foggy streets of Victorian London, secrets and spies hide in a world of gaslamp fantasy, and matters of the heart are as mysterious – or simple – as clockwork.
In Victorian London, Professor Lord Thornton and Lady Amanda, entwined in a web of forbidden attraction, unite to capture a killer who has stolen a clockwork spider designed to spin artificial nerves. Racing against time, they unravel a sinister conspiracy threatening both old London and the delicate balance of their clandestine romance.
THE SILVER SKULL: An illegal border crossing. A fake marriage. A mad German count determined to create an army of unbreakable soldiers.
Determined to avoid an arranged marriage, she stowed away inside a dirigible, only to find herself locked inside a German castle with no hope of rescue. Survival means faking a marriage to the man she was chasing – an excellent opportunity to prove herself as a spy. Except she's falling for him.
THE IRON FIN: A vampiric octopus hunting selkies. A torrid love affair. Traitors who prey on those closest to them in a bid for power.
Strange creatures are attacking her people, their injuries beyond her medical expertise. More than one fisherman has been tossed ashore by the waves, drained of blood, a severed tentacle piercing his flesh. To find answers, she must forge a cautious alliance with the outsider making inquiries… even if he does present an almost irresistible temptation.
VENOMOUS SECRETS: Deadly secrets. A fanged monster. A device that could save lives or shatter worlds.
Cait McCullough is trouble personified. Bored with exploring the possibilities of her unique biology in a laboratory, she longs for excitement. And investigating a vicious fanged creature who stalks its victims by lamplight in darkest London offers the perfect opportunity. Working with a handsome, unmarried agent? A delightful bonus.
