More About the Book:
New York City, 1889. With her neighborhood engulfed in flames over a turf war, professional pickpocket Lily Vane has nowhere to hide. Out of luck, she steals the wrong piece of jewelry from the wrong man—an ancient ring, owned by Gentleman explorer Sir Ashmore Bedivere. He recognizes instantly that Lily’s wily criminal talents could prove useful to him and grants her clemency in return for service. Thus, Lily’s fate is sealed: she finds herself embarking on Ashmore’s quest to find Alatyra, the last lost city.
