Summary
Lady Amanda is tired of having both her intelligence and her work dismissed.
After blackmailing her way into medical school, she catches the eye of her anatomy professor from the moment she walks into his lecture hall. Is he interested in her? Or only her invention - a clockwork spider that can spin artificial nerves?
Lord Thornton, a prominent neurobiologist, has been betrayed.
Secret government technology has been stolen from his laboratory, and a foreign spy is attempting to perfect it via a grisly procedure...using gypsies as test subjects. The last thing he needs is the distraction of a beautiful - and brilliant - new student, even if her spider could heal a deteriorating personal injury.
Until her device is stolen and used in the latest murder.
Lord Thornton has no option but to bring her into his laboratory as well as the investigation, where they must fight their growing yet forbidden attraction. Bodies accumulate, and fragile bonds are tested as they race across London, trying to catch the spy before it's too late.

Thoroughly Enjoyable!
This was my introduction to steampunk and I thoroughly enjoyed the story line, vivid descriptions of surroundings, gadgets, medical terminology and characters. I found the narrater to be engaging and never bored of her voice. Happily on to the next one... ☺️

A great story.
I would go on to get the next one straight away. Though not sure about the narrator. When reading dialogue it was fine. But the narration was just on on level - even the sexier parts were read in the same tone as describing the inside of a house.
Great story line though. Anne Renwick has a great talent.
