Girl with the Iron Touch
Girl with the Iron Touch
Synopsis
When mechanical genius Emily is kidnapped by rogue automatons, Finley Jayne and her fellow misfits fear the worst. What is left of their archenemy, The Machinist, hungers to be resurrected, and Emily must transplant his consciousness into one of his automatons or forfeit her friends' lives.
With Griffin mysteriously tormented by the Aether, Finley turns to the master criminal Jack Dandy for help, though trusting him is as dangerous as controlling her own dark side. Sam, meanwhile, searches everywhere for Emily, willing to walk into hell for her, while the choice Emily faces tests them all.
To save the people she cares about, Emily must confront The Machinist's ultimate creation: an automaton more human than machine. Kady Cross's third Steampunk Chronicles novel keeps its band of Victorian misfits at the centre of a story about what makes a person human.
