Forty years ago the plague wiped out England’s working class. Using a time portal, bi-dimensional creatures are imported from another dimension to be used as labor for 19th century enterprises. Now in 1886, Aspen and Lori Wolfe are determined to end the slave trade. But their schemes are soon exposed to their new guardian, and playboy, Keagan Myrack. Can Aspen and Lori trust Keagan? Will Aspen be blinded by her growing feelings for him? Can they survive powerful enemies and the deadly dimie slave correctional robots before time runs out?
Gear Heart is the first book in a retro, futuristic, espionage trilogy where heroes are chased by portal-projecting enemies, thwarted by secret passages, swayed by romance, and stunned by chilling discoveries. It is a Batman meets industrial revolution thriller that readers will never forget!
