USA TODAY BESTSELLER When an apprentice from the Mapmakers' Guild goes missing, Matt and India are employed to find him. Going undercover as a married couple, they discover that not everyone at the guild is what they seem, and the lad's unearthly maps caused jealousy, suspicion and fear. With one of the apprentice's magic maps in their possession, India and Matt must use their wits and India's fledgling, untried magic to find him. But the more they investigate, the more sinister plots they uncover, including a link between the Mapmakers' and Watchmakers' Guilds, and an ancient magical treasure buried beneath the streets of London. As the net of suspicion widens and enemies draw closer, it's not just the apprentice's life that's in danger, but Matt's too. Someone will go to great lengths to prevent him discovering the name of the man who can fix the watch keeping him alive. Great lengths indeed.… (plus d'informations)

I didn't love this but it's fine for what it is - a very light, escapist read. It's got a bit of everything - historical fantasy/mystery/romance. If that's what you're looking for, I'd recommend print over audio - the voicing of the characters wasn't great. ( )

Glass and Steele are retained to search for an abducted magical mapmaker, while they continue to look for a magical watchmaker--a mystery left over from book 1. Magicians have been in hiding, subject to fierce discrimination for their talents, so nothing about their searches are easy. This is a complex mystery series that is building book by book (as is Glass and Steele's relationship). Definitely a series to continue! ( )

{Second of 13 in Glass and Steele series; fantasy, magic} (2016)

India (the watchmaker's daughter) is now employed by Matt as they continue their search, along with the rest of his friends, for Chronos who created the watch to which Matt's life is linked. They discover a clue but will have to wait a week until they can follow that lead. In the meantime, a case is brought to them by the police commissioner involving the disappearance of a mapmaker's apprentice. India soon realises that the apprentice is a magician and the search for him may unearth clues to her own heritage.

Fun with a hint of romance. One thing i like about this series is that, though it is set a couple of years after Jack the Ripper’s crimes, it doesn’t try to pretend it was written in that period so I don’t get constantly thrown out of the story.

Not nearly as good as the first. I don’t think I’ll continue the series. ( )

Still on a quest to find a way to better health, Matthew and India take on a joint mission to find a missing mapmaker's apprentice. Once again these two have me transfixed on the story that unfolds. ( )
