Gail
Carriger
comes
a
witty
adventure
about
a
young
woman
with
rare
supernatural
abilities
travels
to
India
for
a
spot
of
tea
and
adventure
and
finds
she's
bitten
off
more
than
she
can
chew.
Soon,
she
stumbles
upon
a
plot
involving
local
dissidents,
a
kidnapped
brigadier's
wife,
and
some
awfully
familiar
Scottish

Faced
with
a
dire

must
rely
on
her
good
breeding
--
and
her
metanatural
abilities
--
to
get
to
the
bottom
of
it
all...
