The Engine Woman's Light
of Laurel Anne Hill (Goodreads Author)
Description
A mystical vision of an airship appears to fifteen-year-old Juanita. The long-dead captain commands her to prevent Californiaâs thrown-away peopleâincluding young childrenâfrom boarding trains to an asylum. That institutionâs director plots murder to reduce the inmate population. Yet to save innocent lives Juanita must take lives of the corrupt. How can she reconcile her assignment with her belief in the sacredness of all human life? And will she survive to marry her betrothed? Juanita sets out despite inner trepidation to sabotage the railroad. Her ancestor Billy, the ghost of a steam locomotive engineer, guides her. Then bit by bit, she discovers the gut-wrenching truths all her ancestors neglected to reveal. Come visit Juanitaâs worldâan alternate nineteenth-century Californiaâwhere spirits meet steampunk, where both love and anger emanate from beyond the grave.
