Ancient abominations...sinister secret societies...and a library heist in Imperial Germany!
Molly Dark and her crew of philanthropic thieves aren't looking for trouble-just some rare books. Robbing the Heidelberg university library won't just provide what they need to restore Alphonse Schmidt's memories: it'll also prevent the world's empires from recovering their most sinister weapon.
But the path of true philanthropy never runs smooth.
With rumours afoot that the secret to making undead revenant policemen may be hidden in Heidelberg, agents of the world's Great Powers are racing to recover it. Not least among them is Warren Vandergriff, the world-famous prosthete detective who already has several reasons of his own to want Miss Dark and her friends behind bars.
Worse still, the secretive Order of the Black Temple also has its sights set on the library's hidden treasure-to say nothing of Schmidt himself, whom they've marked out for a sinister ritual to awaken an ancient evil.
Stealing from a deranged deity may be inadvisable, but sometimes one is left with no choice...
