The assignment sounded simple.
The truth was anything but...
Flight Officer Ambrose Maitland is supposed to be taking a well-earned break. But in fact he’s on a quiet but important assignment which takes him to Thornemar, an interesting island with even more interesting residents. Far from being simple, his mission becomes more complicated as an unexpected tragedy greets him. Seeking answers, he meets the notorious Brass Riders, and has a surprising encounter with a young woman connected to his past.
Selina Tully is one of the four ladies-in-waiting to the Archduchess Verena Coppersmith, a reclusive, stunningly beautiful aristocrat living in solitude on her own private island, just offshore. Selina is unavoidably drawn into Ambrose’s mission, and learns to walk carefully when at Coppersmith House. Thanks to her enquiring mind and Ambrose's eye for detail, they uncover a mystery that may hold the clue to Ambrose’s mission.
Together, Ambrose and Selina manage to ask the right questions of the right people, all while preparing for the upcoming ball at Coppersmith House. Individually and together, they search for the answers to the puzzle that confronts them, and try to keep it professional between them, but discovering that’s an impossible task. Stolen embraces threaten to distract them, but the matter takes a serious turn and they must put emotions aside until it's solved.
A magnificent ball, a strange emblem, and a brutally wicked plot...all come together on one spectacular night. The Coppersmith Ball will go down in Thornemar (and Arcvale) history, in an extraordinarily impressive way.
Genre: Science Fiction
