Omschrijving

Thirteen-year-old Natalie Minks loves machines, particularly automata—self-operating mechanical devices, usually powered by clockwork. When Jake Limberleg and his traveling medicine show arrive in her small Missouri town with a mysterious vehicle under a tarp and an uncanny ability to make Natalie’s half-built automaton move, she feels in her gut that something about this caravan of healers is a bit off. Her uneasiness leads her to investigate the intricate maze of the medicine show, where she discovers a horrible truth and realizes that only she has the power to set things right.

Set in 1914, The Boneshaker is a gripping, richly textured novel about family, community, courage, and looking evil directly in the face in order to conquer it. This ebook includes a sample chapter of THE BROKEN LANDS.

But in a town where deals with the devil are whispered in folktales, what hope does a girl armed only with her knowledge of machines have against an ancient evil?

A Courageous Heroine: Meet thirteen-year-old Natalie Minks, a brilliant young inventor whose love for machines is matched only by her determination to protect her hometown from a sinister threat. Automata and Clockwork: Discover a world of intricate self-operating devices, where a half-built automaton mysteriously springs to life and becomes a key to unraveling a dark secret. A Sinister Medicine Show: Step into the eerie maze of Dr. Limberleg’s caravan, where charismatic healers offer miraculous cures that come at a terrifying price. Rich American Folklore: Explore a story steeped in classic folktales, where old stories of a musician’s bargain with the devil at the crossroads hold a chilling relevance for the present day.
