Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - ''To be blunt: I must escape.'' 1893. Henry Nettleblack has to act fast or she''ll be married off by her elder sister. But leaving the safety of her wealthy life isn''t as simple as she thought. Ambushed, robbed, and then saved by a mysterious organisation - part detective agency, part neighb…ourhood watch - a desperate Henry disguises herself and enlists. Sent out to investigate a string of crimes, she soon realises that she is living in a small rural town with surprisingly big problems. When the net starts to close around Henry, and sinister forces threaten to expose her as the missing Nettleblack sister, the new people in her life seem to offer her a way out, and a way forward. Is the world she''s lost in also a place she can find herself Told through journal entries and letters, Nettleblack is a subversive and playful ride through the perils and joys of finding your place in the world, challenging myths about queerness - particularly transness - as a modern phenomenon, while exploring the practicalities of articulating queer perspectives when you''re struggling for words.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - ''The whole Division will sneer when they read this, I know it. But how, pray tell, was I to discern just how wrong it would go '' Pip Property is no stranger to disaster. Typically, they''ve got a plan, but now Dallyangle''s favourite dandy & part-time criminal is locked in the morgue of the… crime-fighting Division gone rogue, accused of far more crimes than they''ve actually committed, with (at least) two bucolic burglars out to strangle them with their own cravat. Their lover - the semi-feral Welsh heiress Rosamond Nettleblack - has disappeared into dangerous hands. Enlisting the Division to save Rosamond might be Pip''s only hope, but the cravat designer and the chaotic vigilantes have never seen eye to eye. The Division is looking to prove themselves to a potential new patron - and trusting schemers like Pip is a risk the detectives don''t want to take. Armed only with a borrowed notebook, threadbare charm, suits without cravat pins and a swordstick everyone keeps confiscating, Pip must get the Division on-side, convince the Division that faith is a thing they can still have, and unravel the truth behind Rosamond''s disappearance before it''s too late.
