Protagonist Karen Memery comes to instant life from the very first line of this first-person steampunk narrative of derring-do starring characters who don't often get leading roles in historical fiction--young women working in the sex trade, immigrants, and even a black US Marshal, many of whom were inspired by real-life counterparts.
