Publisher's note

Welcome to the bizarre and dangerous world of Victorian London, a city teetering on the edge of revolution. Its people are ushering in a new era of technology, dazzled each day by unfamiliar inventions. Airships soar in the skies over the city, while ground trains rumble through the streets and clockwork automatons are programmed to carry out menial tasks in the offices of lawyers, policemen, and journalists.
But beneath this shiny veneer of progress lurks a sinister side.
Queen Victoria is kept alive by a primitive life-support system, while her agents, Sir Maurice Newbury and his delectable assistant Miss Veronica Hobbes, do battle with enemies of the crown, physical and supernatural. This time Newbury and Hobbes are called to investigate the wreckage of a crashed airship and its missing automaton pilot, while attempting to solve a string of strangulations attributed to a mysterious glowing policeman, and dealing with a zombie plague that is ravaging the slums of the capital.
Get ready to follow dazzling young writer George Mann to a London unlike any you've ever seen and into an adventure you will never forget..

In an alternate-universe London marked by airships, robots, and the survival of a Queen Victoria who is kept alive by a primitive life-support system, agents Newbury and Hobbes investigate the wreckage of a crashed airship while attempting to solve a string of strangling murders.

Annotation

In this sci-fi steampunk history of London at the turn of the 20th century, an eccentric anthropologist named Sir Maurice Newbury investigates a zeppelin crash that is being blamed on the supposedly infallible robot piloting system. His investigation soon encounters a smorgasbord of bizarre behavior, including reports of a murderous glowing police officer and a plague of zombies devouring their way through the infamous Whitechapel district. This action-packed adventure is the first novel from George Mann, a prominent English editor of science fiction anthologies, and it seems destined to spawn a series of Newbury adventures.
