Finley Jayne has a dark side. It comes out whenever she feels particularly threatened and has cost her quite a few jobs. When one employers son goes to far she beats him up and runs away out of fear for what he wanted to do to her and what she did do to him. Then she runs into Griffin King. Literally. Straight into his velocycle. This strange encounter starts off a strange adventure for Finley, Griffin, and Griffins friends in which an elusive man called The Machinist has been using automatons to commit crimes. Griffin and his 'gang' for want of a better word fear he will do worse than that. 
 I quite enjoyed this book. It felt like a nice leisurely read but was intriguing and kept me reading. It had action and a mystery. I liked that the romance was slow to develop, making it feel all the more real. I particularly liked Jack Dandy, a criminal who comes to Finley's aid on more than one occasion. I also liked that the book was told from 3 different perspectives, giving us readers more insight into the characters and their actions.
