The thrilling conclusion to Christopher Healy's funny, action-packed,
acclaimed alt-history adventure!
It is 1884, and Molly and Cassandra Pepper, Emmett Lee, and Emmett's
long-lost father are sailing back to New York following their
death-defying adventure in Antarctica. Having discovered a subterranean
world at the South Pole while saving the world from certain doom once
again, surely their accomplishments will finally earn them the
recognition they deserve.
Unless, of course . . . well, you know by now.
And so do the Peppers and Lees. They're used to having their deeds
covered up by the government in order to protect powerful men, and
frankly, they're sick of it. And when their return to New York doesn't
go the way they'd planned, they decide that maybe it's best to go into
hiding and accept that, perhaps, the forces aligned against them are
just too great.
As the 1884 presidential election approaches, however, our heroes
discover a plot against leading candidate Thomas Edison that only they
can stop. It'll be up to them to decide whether to come out of hiding,
make the perilous journey to Washington, DC, and do the right thing one
last time. Even if it means risking everything they have left.
