A Jasmine at Midnight | A Steampunk Mystery 🌙

🌼🌺🌸 1896, England: A tale of Djinns, Dark Magic, Mystery, and Clockwork.

Leila Farahat is a girl whose future is nothing but scrubbing floors and greasing the gilded gears of her Master's automatons. That is until her sister goes missing.

Assumed dead, Zahra Farahat's case closes with an open end-last seen entering a park in the bustling Great City of London. No remains were found in the greenery. No clues were buried under the glistening snow. No footprints and no trace of her ever stepping in. A seemingly perfect victim of gossip for years to come. However, when a travelling carnival, shrouded in darkness, arrives that very winter, Leila finds there's more to the story than is believed.

Through an enchanting waltz into the enigmas of another world, a treasure of buried secrets will resurface. Unravelled as easily as a slip of silk.. Or rather, a slight of hand.

Told from the perspective of two orphan twin sisters, a daring showman, a baroness with a hidden vendetta, and a seductive belly dancer, industrial Victorian England will intertwine with a story of culture and art.
