The Diamond Conspiracy by Philippa Ballantine
For years, the Ministry of Peculiar Occurrences has enjoyed the favor of Her Majesty the Queen. But as agents Brooks and Braun soon learn in the fourth novel in the steampunk adventure series, even the oldest loyalties can turn in a moment. Having narrowly escaped the electrifying machinations of Thomas Edison, Books and Braun are looking forward to a relaxing and possibly romantic voyage home. But when Braun's emergency signal goes off, all thoughts of recreation vanish. Braun's street-wise team of child informants, the Ministry Seven, is in grave peril, and Books and Braun must return to England immediately. But when the intrepid agents finally arrive in London, the situation is even more dire than they imagined. The Ministry has been disavowed, and the Department of Imperial Inconveniences has been called in to decommission its agents in a most deadly fashion. The plan reeks of the Maestro's dastardly scheming. Only, this time, he has a dangerous new ally--a duplicitous doctor whose pernicious poisons have infected the highest levels of society, reaching even the Queen herself.Tee Morris began his literary career with Dragon Moon Press's historical epic fantasy Morevi: The Chronicles of Rafe and Askana in 2002, but it is his podcast of that novel, as well as publications like Podcasting for Dummies and All a Twitter, that have given him the title of social media pioneer. Tee returns to where he prefers to be--his imagination--with Phoenix Rising. Tee lives in Washington, D.C. when he is not there. He lives in the neighborhood with his five cats and one daughter, all of whom have him well-trained.
