About The Clockwork Detective
Aubrey Hartmann left the Imperial battlefields with a pocketful of medals, a fearsome reputation, and a clockwork leg.
The Imperium diverts her trip home to investigate the murder of a young druwyd in a strange town. Ordered to find the killer, she must also prevent a full-scale war with the dreaded Fae.
Meanwhile, the arrival of a sinister secret policeman threatens to dig up Aubrey’s own secrets – ones that could ruin her career.
It soon becomes clear that Aubrey has powerful enemies with plans to stop her before she gets started. Determined to solve the mystery, Aubrey must survive centaurs, thugs and a monster of pure destruction.
She's endured years of war, but how will she survive this?
Available in eBook, print, and audio.
