Thessaloniki: The Savage Brood - Book Two

After winning a bet on a horse race, Lady Psyche Savage finally gets the chance to take the trip of a lifetime. When a horrible tragedy befalls her family, she thinks that ship has sailed without her, only to find herself on it after all. She gets to battle marauding bandits, see ancient wonders, and claim fabulous hidden treasures...no matter what anyone else thinks she should be doing.

Thessaloniki is the second book of the Savage Brood series, recounting the adventures of an early nineteenth-century family of polymaths who believe there are no limits on the things they can accomplish.
