Welcome to the Blog + Review Tour for The Clockwork City by Shelley Adina<\/em><\/strong>, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours<\/a>!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/The-Clockwork-City.jpg” title_text=”The Clockwork City” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”MY REVIEW JustRead” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n MY REVIEW:<\/strong><\/p>\n To me, Venice is already a city of fantasy with its canals and bridges rather than streets connecting the small islands that compose it. The Clockwork City<\/em> adds an almost believable steampunk touch to its rich historical background that combined with a murder mystery makes it a delightfully clean adventure.<\/p>\n Widow Lady Georgia Brunel and her late husband\u2019s Aunt Millicent have traveled to Venice for a leisurely painting holiday but that quickly changes course when a body is found floating at the entrance to her rented villa. Local law enforcement appears to be overlooking the case one minute and accusing Georgia of murder the next. Determined to solve the mystery and reunite the victim\u2019s daughter with her mother, Georgia and Millie join forces with a Texican Ranger on a dangerous and \u00a0deadly quest that will keep the reader engaged. Encounters with the fabled kraken add a special touch to the story.<\/p>\n I enjoyed this first book of the series and look forward to seeing if a certain potential romance will transpire in the next installment. An excellent book for teens, I recommend it to all who enjoy a steampunk theme with clean, faith-based content.<\/p>\n I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book provided by JustReads Publicity. A favorable review was not required. All views expressed are my own.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”ABOUT THE BOOK” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
