"It begins in the city nicknamed "the Fairest," distinguished by many things, from the river, the mighty Fair, to the mountains that split the municipality in half; its theaters and many museums; the Morgue Ship; and, like all cities, but maybe especially so, by its essential unmappability. Dora has an obscure desire -- to find where her brother went after he died, believing that the answer lies within the Society for Psykical Research, where he worked when Dora was a child. With the city amid an overthrow of the ruling classes, Dora discovers the Society all but burned to the ground yet finds a way to become the wartime curator of the museum next door and search for the truth." --Container
