And They Called Her Spider

Alton Bartleby is a social savant and the foppish toast of steampunk London's upper crust. James Wainwright is a brilliant but socially stunted working class engineer with a flair for invention and a propensity towards violence. Together they solve the mysteries that Scotland Yard cannot.

In the shadow of airships an unstoppable assassin stalks the untouchable elite. As Queen Victoria's Platinum Jubilee approaches, consulting detectives Bartleby and James must track her down and put an end to the threat she presents to Queen and country.

This mystery is the first novelette in the Galvanic Century series of steampunk stories.
