Never underestimate the power of an outraged female.
Hoping to transfer his poetic genius into a more perfect body and live forever, Lord Byron trapped the furious energy of wronged women in a blue crystal stolen from a statue of the Hindu goddess Kali. A murderous cult has grown up around the crystal, trying to bring the poet king back to life.
In June 1838 a necromancer hopes to use the cult to regain the positions in Parliament he used to control. With the angry energy of the crystal, he can fuel an impossible weapon for the assassination of Queen Victoria during her coronation.
After destroying Byron's transference engine, Madame Magdala has been forced to reinvent herself to escape the cult's vengeance. Twenty years later her visions predict a dangerous pattern that will lead to the fall of the government and chaos.
Along with an army of guttersnipes, she has only her wits and her bulletproof corset to confront the necromancer and save England from total destruction.
