Victorian Scoundrel
by Stephanie Burkhart
BLURB:
It's 2011 and
compressed natural gas has taken over from the coal producing steam machines of
the Victorian Age. Alice Windsor, Princess of York, follows her mischief-making
cousin, Edmund of Wales, back to 1851 where Prince Albert
is hosting Britain's
Great Exhibition.
Alice soon finds herself over her head in
trouble. Edmund is determined to help Prince
Albert build a dirigible and the prime minister
appears intent in preventing her from stopping Edmund. Alice knows it's too early for the massive
flying machine to take to the air. Complicating matters is the passionate
Grayson Kentfield, Earl of Swinton. Alice
can't stop her pulse from pounding when she's near him.
Excerpt:
She
nibbled on her lower lip, a curious habit she had. When she was indecisive,
perhaps? Then she drew the necklace over her head, giving it to him. He placed
the coin flat in the palm of his hand, and let the chain dangle through his
fingers. It was bronze or brass, with a strange sequence of numbers and
letters. He furrowed his brow. Alice
bent over and used her finger to push her glasses firmly back onto the bridge
of her nose.
"It's
some type of alpha-numeric code," Grayson mused out loud.
Alice looked on,
a murky expression on her face. "Perhaps."
Grayson
looked up. "I've seen a similar code on the datamancers they introduced in
Parliament."
"What's
a datamancer?" she asked.
He
tried not to get lost in those soulful cerulean eyes of hers. "You don't
know what a datamancer is?"
"No."
"It
thinks for itself--"
"Grayson,
what's in your hand?"
Grayson
and Alice turned in the direction of the door. Sir John briskly walked toward
them escorted by a soldier and another gentleman Grayson recognized as the
prince's secretary.
