If the "foreseen four"-prince, mouse, saint, dancing-happen together it might wreck a twenty-year plot worth billions, and the future is so fogged-up the Seers can't See a date and place. Just 1890.

But the conspirators have finally identified the young prince. Which makes their 1874 to-do list: (1) Kill the prince; (2) find the mouse, and figure out (3) which saint and (4) what dancing.

Only it's now 1890.

Were they wrong about Georg, the scarred, six-nine (rounded up) Crown Prince of Prussia and Saxony, being the one? He ought to be a Viking warrior, but he's only a cooking mage in the Great Palace. Did they waste all that money on the assassination attempts?

And how could "Lord Mouse," the nickname of the short, insignificant third son of a British Duke, with dusky skin inherited from "the Jamaican Duchess," possibly be part of the four? He's just a parchment prankster whose latest one drew the ire of the Inquisition, resulting in him being sent on an out-of-sight-out-of-mind visit to Berlin to attend Georg's birthday ball.

Still... A prince, a "mouse," and definite dancing at the ball. Maybe the saint won't matter if they can stop one of the other three. Or all.

Come visit a world of magick and technology, where the Gunpowder Treaty of 1750 prevents guns from being used in war, and its magick requires renewing in 1890. You'll find anarchist plots, international intrigue, a midair mishap on Her Majesty's Airship The Hindenburg, a Mouse who loves climbing a Mountain because of the fun things which happen when he does, a sovereign coming out, the addictiveness of Black Mountain coffee, plus the seductiveness of anything black raspberry. And yes, of course there's sex on the Spanish Steps.

There's a definite HEA, and although it doesn't fully happen until Part Three, there's lots of fun along the way for a Prince and his Mouse (although said Mouse thinks it's the other way round).
