โฆ Synopsis
Irene is working undercover in an alternative Victorian London. For this librarian spy, it's business as usual, until her assistant Kai is abducted. Kai's hidden dragon heritage means he has powerful enemies, and this act of aggression could trigger a war between his people and their greatest rivals. As they each represent the forces of order and chaos themselves, matters could turn unpleasant. Irene's mission to save Kai and avert Armageddon will take her to a dark, alternate Venice where it's always Carnival. Here Irene will be forced to blackmail, fast talk, and fight. Or she'll face mayhem--at the very least.
