Readers can expect a cosy mystery set in an emergent pre-industrial world. Mild action, romantic and fantasy elements. This story is finished, so you don’t have to worry about getting part way through and never finding out ‘who done it.’   My goal was to write something readers would be able to solve along with, or if you are clever, before the protagonists. Dereniik is a Deputised Operative Commander. (Detective.) Catastrophe earlier in the rotation has left him disabled, suffering from panic attacks and struggling to find meaning in continued existence.  Lady La’navikyaa, Viky, is a Second Daughter from The Rifts grappling with the death of her parentals, changed circumstances and forced relocation. This unlikely duo team up to locate a stolen item. I hope you enjoy reading. Any constructive feed back will be appreciated. This book is average novel length, but I have other works in this series already written. So, I will see how this goes. I am disabled and write for pleasure and pain relief.   Updates. I am planning to update every couple of days.  Please note I will be using Australian spelling.
