The third and final volume in Laura Ruby’s acclaimed, bestselling alt-history trilogy is an adventure of epic proportions.
After the stunning events of The Clockwork Ghost, Tess, Theo, and Jaime don’t know what to think about their legacy—both past and present. They have only one choice: to follow the Old York Cipher to the end.
Doing so reveals the plans for a machine invented over 150 years ago but never built. Its purpose is a mystery, but Tess, Theo, and Jaime know that they must construct it. Doing so, however, will have massive repurcussions and will launch the twins and their friend on one final adventure. Working together with the mysterious Ava Oneal, they attempt to complete the Morningstarrs’ vision and avert a global crisis of historic proportions.
