The Lady and the World's Fair
In a world full of technological wonders, the oldest crime still requires the smartest detective.
Lady Anne Worthington, an English countess with a brilliant mind for invention, has crossed an ocean to showcase her revolutionary Self-Typing Telegraph Machine at the World's Fair. Far from her aristocratic obligations, she's found purpose in innovation—where her creative genius, not her title, defines her worth.
But when Baroness Céleste Bouvier—curator of the French Fine Arts Pavilion and Lady Anne's childhood friend—is discovered dead from a gunshot wound, the fair's gleaming façade cracks. As officials scramble to contain the scandal, Anne receives an ominous message from her own invention: "Find the truth before it finds you."
With authorities pushing for a quick resolution to protect the exposition's reputation, Anne faces an impossible choice: focus on wooing investors for her invention and secure her financial future or risk everything to expose a killer hiding among the fair's wonders.
As San Francisco's infamous fog shrouds the fairgrounds, obscuring the line between progress and peril, will Lady Anne's greatest invention be the key to solving the crime? Or will it silence her brilliant mind forever?
San Francisco, 1925
