Condición: Very Good. When a bomb goes off at 221B Baker Street, Evelina Cooper is thrown into her uncle Sherlock's world of mystery and murder. But just when she thought it was safe to return to the ballroom, old, new, and even dead enemies are clamoring for a place on her dance card. Before Evelina's even unpacked her gowns for a country house party, an indiscretion puts her in the power of the ruthless Gold King, who recruits her as his spy. He knows her disreputable past and exiles her to the rank alleyways of Whitechapel with orders to unmask his foe. As danger mounts, Evelina struggles between hiding her illegal magic and succumbing to the darker aspects of her power. One path keeps her secure; the other keeps her alive. For rebellion is brewing, a sorcerer wants her soul, and no one can protect her in the hunting grounds of Jack the Ripper.

Condición: Good. As part of her devil's bargain with the industrial steam barons, Evelina Cooper is finally enrolled in the Ladies' College of London. However, she's attending as the Gold King's pet magician, handcuffed and forbidden contact with even her closest relation, the detective Sherlock Holmes.   But Evelina's problems are only part of a larger war. The Baskerville affair is finally coming to light, and the rebels are making their move to wrest power from the barons and restore it to Queen Victoria. Missing heirs and nightmare hounds are the order of the day--or at least that's what Dr. Watson is telling the press.   But their plans are doomed unless Evelina escapes to unite her magic with the rebels' machines--and even then her powers aren't what they used to be. A sorcerer has awakened a dark hunger in Evelina's soul, and only he can keep her from endangering them all. The only problem is . . . he's dead. Praise for A Study in Ashes   "Holloway's skill for creating a richly imagined, immersive world shines."--RT Book Reviews   "A Study in Ashes overflows with Holloway's signature humor and apparently boundless imagination."--Booktalk & More   "The best book of the series . . . absolutely wonderful . . . I really can't recommend it highly enough."--Hidden in Pages   "Brilliantly executed . . . my favorite book of 2013 . . . what a stunning conclusion to such a phenomenal series!"--Fresh Fiction   "Even grander than the books before it with its drama, adventure, intrigue, romance, paranormal, gadgetry and just exciting twistiness to its storyline."--Delighted Reader Praise for Emma Jane Holloway's A Study in Silks   "This book has just about everything: magic, machines, mystery, mayhem, and all the danger one expects when people's loves and fears collide.
