They are only interested in her heart and the accident that took the life of her mother. No one seems to be interested in the wonderful things that she has achieved.
Now that the secrets of the Cogheart have been revealed to the world, she feels that everyone is watching her. Yet Lily can’t help but also feel a little nervous. Not only will they be able to visit Selena and Caddy once again, but they will also get to ring in the New Year in one of the biggest and busiest cities on the planet. Lily, Robert, John and Malkin are excited to travel to New York City. The novel carries on from where Cogheart (2016), Moonlocket (2017) and Skycircus (2018) left off, so I would recommend reading the novels in sequence to fully appreciate them. It is a middle grade steampunk science-fiction novel, focusing on the continuing adventures of Lily Townsend – a young girl with a perpetual motion machine for a heart.
