Back Blurb:
Espionage! Sabotage! High profile heists, unexpected twists, and daring escapes! Captain Jac and her airship crew of misfits are the best at what they do. When an unknown agent offers them a job with a payout too good to be true and a heist that will go down in history, Jac can’t refuse.

Captain Jac must rely on her wits to stay one step ahead of the dark forces aligned against her while she and her crew attempt to unravel the ultimate mystery
Da Vinci Code for the Era of Renaissance and Enlightenment?
Less Illuminate (at least in this book! Spoilers!), more thrilling airship chases 🙂

Loved The First Sin. Very intertaining. Some errors in the French words like grand[e] poche, Mme Beaufort (no .), Messieurs, Santé, Bonne santé , and some others.
Can’t wait to read the next one. The premisse was excellent.
Loved it. Swachbuckling with a twist . The « prémices » for the second book look promising. Some errors in the French words need to be corrected. If interested in knowing which ones, just reach me .
So glad you enjoyed it! I’m working on the second one, though it’s coming along slowly. Seems I need to brush up on my French! It’s been quite some time since I lived in France, and my spelling has always been my downfall!
My offer to help you still stands. No fuss, no charge 😉
When I get far enough along to show it to anyone, I’ll take you up on that!
