Shadow of the War Machine by Kristin Bailey 433 pages
Meg has come a long way from her days as a lowly housemaid, driven to
learn the truth behind her parents' murder. She's since discovered that
they were part of the Secret Order of Modern Amusementists - an
underground society of inventors. Determined to reclaim her heritage,
she joined the Amusementists as an apprentice, but that hasn't brought
her closer to the man responsible for the loss of her family: the man in
the clockwork mask.
Now the man in the clockwork mask is coming
for her. But Meg is tired of being hunted and she intends to become the
hunter. The truth about her family is out there, and she will find it.
With Will, the boy who holds her heart, Meg embarks on an adventure that
takes them far from the cold London winter and into the heart of
France.
But the City of Light is filled with dark shadows.
There's a plot afoot that could turn the tides of a terrible war, and
cost the lives of millions - that is, if it doesn't take the lives of
everyone Meg holds dear, including her own.
