Chains of Silver (Alchemy Empire, #1)

by Meredith Rose

Overview

If all the world's a stage…then I am seriously screwn.

 

Even though she spends her time backstage creating fantastic steam-powered devices, Minx Mellor is great at acting—acting like everything is fine, that is. But when she learns the theater's lead actress is the next target of a notorious killer, Minx can't keep up the act anymore. She has no choice but to step into the spotlight to protect the woman she loves like a mother.

 

With only four weeks to outwit the killer and a Theatrical Guild who considers them expendable, Minx teams up with her sworn enemy, Delphine Birdwell, and the steam-hot director, Dietrich Wolff, who stirs both her desires and her deepest fears. 

 

When disaster strikes, Minx must trust Dietrich with the truth about the magic she swore to keep buried forever.  It's her only chance to survive the biggest role of her life—as bait to trap a murderer.

 

From the shadows of cobblestoned alleys and the glittering world of an aristocracy gone mad for theater comes the first book in a young adult fantasy romance series about the power of creativity and the resiliency of the human spirit.

About the Author

Meredith Rose has been a literary rebel since the age of nine when she began rewriting novel endings she didn’t like.

Childhood peers mocked her for using words longer than two syllables, and adults told her that she would never be able to make it as a writer–because it’s, like, not a real career.

Thoroughly undaunted, (well, maybe a little daunted at times, to be honest) over the next two decades she secretly pursued writing novels and finally sold her first book at age twenty-nine (under a different name). She went on to publish another three novels, in which the experience of rewriting stuff actually came in useful. Chains of Silver is her first young adult novel, and she wrote it for her two teenage daughters who are also talented rebels in their own ways.

When she’s not writing, Meredith goes on bookstore dates with her husband, studies Welsh, dabbles in graphic design and altered art, and reads Tumblr way too much. Bucket list items include becoming a yarn bomber, Argentine tango dancer, and an opera singer.

Meredith loves interacting with readers—well, all you normal, non-stalker type readers, anyway. She can be found mostly lurking, but occasionally stirring up trouble at the following locations:
