How much easier everything looks when you can't see a thing.
Ikey wanted to stay on the farm and care for the uncle who made him a master mechanic, but a lost bet with the Admiral changed everything.
Forced to accompany the Admiral to Whitby, Ikey is soon in the thick of the Admiral's secret project--an airship like no other, one that will seal Great Britain's victory in World War I. Trapped in a strange, new world, and apprenticed to a gruff but brilliant engineer named Cross, Ikey seeks comfort in the company of Cross's mysterious wife, Rose. She obscures her face with a veil and keeps the house dark at all hours. Her impossibly long, beautiful fingers stop Ikey’s breath and leave him wondering about her nature.
As Ikey works to unravel Rose's secrets, he is caught up in a web of lies and deceit that threatens the airship, his relationship with Rose, and even his very life. Challenged from all sides, Ikey must decide what he values most, and what price he will pay for love.

I don't usually comment on books that don't uplift me. But this one had no reviews, and seemed to deserve a few words.It was darker and sadder than I like. Which bespeaks my taste, not the writing. And yet, not so graphic I couldn't get through it.
The first few paragraphs felt awkward. But then the narrative eased into a more natural flow -- compelling, at times -- with enough twisty bits and gadgetry to distract from the morbidity and keep me reading. There was also what I considered a serious breach of character for Ikey nearing the end, as well as a few loose ends I'd've liked tied up. But, overall, the action went where it seemed appropriate for the type of story being told.
For my taste, the most imaginative, most interesting, scenes involved the character of Rose. For whom I'd feel inclined to brave reading a sequel.
If you're fond of life's miserable-illogical-unfair tales with steampunk tech, you might like this one.
