Dr Pretorius and the Lost Temple

London, 1832. Mr Carlyle knows a great deal about the matter of the dead. After he meets a young engineer, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, at a seance, his investigations into strange events associated with the stalled Thames Tunnel project pit him against a wily necromancer, Dr Pretorius, and a curse as old as the city itself.

A steampunk novelette by the award-winning author of Pasquale's Angel and Fairyland, with a bonus short story describing one of Mr Carlyle's contemporary cases.
