Midnight Summons

Ned Vale has built Vale & Company into a real workshop with customers, inventions, and a future of its own.  Then Justicier Voss arrives at midnight with a Crown Service Warrant, pulling him into the impossible murder of Lord Malvern, a political conspiracy, and a dangerous export bill that could arm Britain's enemies. In a world of brass, steam, ley-crystal, and imperial duty, Ned must solve what truth alone cannot, without letting the Crown consume everything he has built.
