In Victorian London, if youâ€™re not a blue blood of the Echelon then youâ€™re nothing at all. The Great Houses rule the city with an iron fist, imposing their strict â€˜blood taxesâ€™ on the nation, and the Queen is merely a puppet on a stringâ€¦,Lena Todd makes the perfect spy. Nobody suspects the flirtatious debutante could be a sympathizer for the humanist movement haunting Londonâ€™s vicious blue blood elite. Not even the ruthless Will Carver, the one man she canâ€™t twist around her little finger, and the one man whose kiss she canâ€™t forgetâ€¦,Stricken with the loupe and considered little more than a slave-without-a-collar to the blue bloods, Will wants nothing to do with the Echelon or the dangerous beauty who drives him to the very edge of control. But when he finds a coded letter on Lenaâ€”a code that matches one he saw on a fire-bombing suspectâ€”he realizes sheâ€™s in trouble. To protect her, he must seduce the truth from her.,With the humanists looking to start a war with the Echelon, Lena and Will must race against timeâ€”and an automaton armyâ€”to stop the humanist plot before itâ€™s too late. But as they fight to save a city on the brink of revolution, the greatest danger might just be to their heartsâ€¦
