In the fifth installment of the Timeless Parasol Protectorate series, our beloved protagonist Alexia Tarabotti, now Lady Maccon, has found contentment in her domestic life. However, as always with Alexia, this blissful state involves navigating the complexities of integrating werewolves into high society, living in a vampire's second-best closet, and dealing with a rambunctious toddler who has a tendency to exhibit supernatural abilities. Even the disastrous play put on by Ivy Tunstell's acting troupe cannot dampen Alexia's enjoyment of her new London lifestyle. That is, until she receives an urgent summons from Alexandria that she cannot ignore. With her husband, child, and the Tunstells in tow, Alexia sets off on a steamer to cross the Mediterranean. But Egypt holds more mysteries than even the fearless Lady Maccon can handle. What does the vampire Queen of the Alexandria Hive truly want from her? Why is the GodBreaker Plague suddenly spreading? And how has Ivy Tunstell become the most sought-after actress in all of the British Empire? As Alexia delves deeper into the secrets of Egypt, she must use all of her wit and strength to unravel the truth and protect her loved ones.
