Summary
Lady Spring Lovelace has done what few others have successfully managed; she has wrangled some of the most unreachable, unpredictable forces in London together for the Marvelous, ahead of its impossible schedule. She has set up the game of a lifetime, and at last, she has made it to her true purpose in London. Now all she has to do is win, and everything her heart desires will be in reach at last.
That is easier said than done, of course, but what sort of player would she be if she gave in easily? She was going to win, or she was going to die trying.
Perhaps she’d do a bit of both.

Summary
"Such love in you," the Vicomte whispers. Warm fingers trail over a shoulder, a collarbone, along the line of your jaw— long enough to be known, but not so long as to overstay welcome. "So much of it it spills, overflowing to places few can perceive. A stream here, a river there. Torrents into trickles into verdant soil and dry cups. Do you see it?"
You don't. But you do, don't you?
---
The Vicomte De V_____ and a common thief share a moment over their cups.

Summary
Brett Heroux has a problem- well, lots of them. But the most pressing one is that someone claims to know of a sordid surface murder, one that somehow involves Brett, and of a man named ‘Greggs’. After the events of his ambition, Brett doesn’t know how much more he can take. With the help of his friends and enemies alike, he may just find a solution… or be irrevocably changed. Either way, he’s going to get to the bottom of it.
