Timeless

Alexia Tarabotti, Lady Maccon, has settled into domestic bliss, which for her involves integrating werewolves into London high society, living in a vampire's second-best closet, and coping with a precocious toddler prone to turning supernatural at inconvenient moments. Even the disastrous latest play by Ivy Tunstell's acting troupe cannot dampen her enjoyment of the new arrangement.

Then a summons arrives from Alexandria that cannot be ignored. With husband, child and Tunstells in tow, Alexia boards a steamer to cross the Mediterranean. Egypt holds more mysteries than even the indomitable Lady Maccon expects: what the vampire Queen of the Alexandria Hive really wants from her, why the God-Breaker Plague is suddenly expanding, and how Ivy Tunstell has become the most popular actress in the British Empire.

Timeless closes Gail Carriger's Parasol Protectorate series with the comedy of manners, steampunk invention and supernatural politics the books are known for.
