About this ebook

Before he makes his appearance in The Girl with the Iron Touch, Jack Dandy had an adventure of his very own. Learn how his actions set the plot in motion in The Dark Discovery of Jack Dandy, a short teaser story from author Kady Cross’s Steampunk Chronicles.

Jack Dandy didn’t become prince of the London underworld at barely twenty-one by being softhearted, even if a certain girl in a steel corset has wormed her way into his affections of late. He knows how to manipulate, charm and rob people blind. And if his criminal activities embarrass his aristocratic father, so much the better.

So when a friend of Jack’s father hires him for an underhanded job, Jack is happy to oblige—for an outrageous fee, of course. Delivering a mysterious crate seems like an easy task—until Jack realizes just what is inside…

Don’t miss the conclusion to Jack’s escapade in The Girl with the Iron Touch by Kady Cross, available now from Harlequin TEEN.

Ratings and reviews

A great read and nice insight into the world of Mr. Dandy. However, I'm disappointed by lack of history buildup from his past into the present moment mentioned in the book. The life of Jack Dandy could be a novel all on its own. Would have been nice to find out how he really came to be...from his perspective. And I'm starting to have a crush on this handsome villain. So a bit more, Treasure, would you please? ;)

Amazing and totally worth it!! I loved it
