Summary
She knows a liar when she sees one. He knows a fraud when he meets one.
In a steam-powered world, Miss Constance Haltwhistle is the last in a line of blue-blooded rogues. Selling firearms under her alias, the “Brass Queen,” she has kept her baronial estate’s coffers full. But when US spy J. F. Trusdale saves her from assassins, she’s pulled into a search for a scientist with an invisibility serum. As royal foes create an invisible army to start a global war, Constance and Trusdale must learn to trust each other. If they don’t, the world as they know it will disappear before their eyes.
If you like the Parasol Protectorate or the Invisible Library series, you’ll love this gaslamp fantasy - a rambunctious romantic romp that will have you both laughing out loud and wishing you owned all of Miss Haltwhistle's armaments.

Engaging and entertaining romp
I'm so delighted to listen to Michelle Babb. She lends this quirky tale of steampunkish derring-do an element of genteel but comedic grandeur. Her characterisations are excellent and I enjoyed the book from start to finish. Elizabeth Chatsworth has a way with words that works really well with Michelle's talent. I do hope there will be *gasp* a series. I am already inordinately fond of Mr Trusdale and that most uppity of heroines, Miss Haltwhistle. I'd like to have seen the world around them padded out a little more, but fortunately my imagination is lively enough to have coped. Perhaps a series will lend itself to this in some small but engaging way.
