Gather your poison, steel tipped quill, and the rest of your school supplies and join Mademoiselle Geraldine s proper young killing machines in the third rousing installment of the "New York Times" bestselling Finishing School Series by steampunk author Gail Carriger.

"Class is back in session "

Sophronia continues her second year at finishing school in style with a steel-bladed fan secreted in the folds of her ball gown, of course. Such a fashionable choice of weapon comes in handy when Sophronia, her best friend Dimity, sweet sootie Soap, and the charming Lord Felix Mersey stowaway on a train to return their classmate Sidheag to her werewolf pack in Scotland. No one suspected what or who they would find aboard that suspiciously empty train. But when Sophronia uncovers a plot that threatens to throw all of London into chaos, she must decide where her loyalties lie, once and for all."
