  Alternate France, 1871. Art historian Veronica Devine dreams of putting her husband's betrayal behind her. So she's grateful for the somewhat distracting mission to transport a valuable collection from a French chateau across the Atlantic. But before her voyage even begins, she's attacked by thieves and saved by a mysterious stranger. 
  Luc, the Marquis de Monceau's, fate is bound to an enchanted ancestral painting. After fleeing the Prussian invasion, his survival hinges on protecting an alias that preserves the rumor of his death. So when the beautiful woman he saves insists she has permission to remove his portraits, he has no choice but to escort her aboard a luxury airship. 
  Within the confines of the majestic vessel, Veronica and Luc soon discover they have more in common than a love of art. But cryptic messages, a clockwork automaton, and conniving passengers threaten to ground their romantic aspirations. 
  Will Veronica and Luc unravel the mystery of the masterpiece before dark forces from his past send their ship into the depths? 
  The Art of Piracy is the opening novella in the imaginative Inspector Davidson Mysteries steampunk romance series. If you like colorful characters, action-filled adventures, and intriguing settings, then you'll adore Cecilia Dominic's suspenseful drama.
