Changeless (The Parasol Protectorate)

Fantasy Urban Fantasy Historical Fiction Satire

Description

When Alexia Maccon's werewolf husband mysteriously vanishes and supernatural chaos erupts on her doorstep—complete with exorcised ghosts and an irate Queen Victoria—the resourceful Lady Woolsey must investigate his disappearance while armed with nothing but her trusty parasol, impeccable fashion sense, and razor-sharp wit. Her investigation leads her from the drawing rooms of Victorian London to the rugged highlands of Scotland, where she discovers that her unique soulless nature gives her unprecedented power to upend werewolf pack dynamics and uncover dangerous secrets. In this delightfully witty second installment of the Parasol Protectorate series, Carriger masterfully blends paranormal intrigue with comedy of manners, creating a world where supernatural creatures navigate Victorian society with all its rigid protocols and social expectations. Brimming with werewolves, vampires, dirigibles, and the civilized tradition of tea-drinking, Changeless is a clever, fast-paced adventure that proves even the most extraordinary circumstances cannot shake a lady's composure or fashion sense.
