The Earl of Brass (The Ingenious Mechanical Devices Book 1) (29 page)

The young man quickly backtracked to the front gate upon hearing his name.

“I recently received a shipment of walrus bones for the museum. I expected them to be clean or at least close to it, but instead they sent me an entire walrus carcass. I could really use an extra set of hands for a few weeks, and of course, I would pay you for your help.”

His eyes gleamed to a brighter shade of blue. “I would love to, sir.”

“Good. Meet me tomorrow night after dinner at the natural history museum, and we can get started.”

 

 

About the Author

 

 

Kara Jorgensen is an author and professional student from New Jersey who will probably die slumped over a Victorian novel. An anachronistic oddball from birth, she has always had an obsession with the Victorian era, especially the 1890s. Midway through a dissection in a college anatomy class, Kara realized her true passion was writing and decided to marry her love of literature and science through science fiction or, more specifically, steampunk. When she is not writing, she is watching period dramas, going to museums, or babying her beloved dogs.
