In a dark and hulking mansion in Victorian London, England lives a girl named Avaline Baines. Her life and passion is devoted to her work--assistant to the mysterious and brilliant young Doctor Peregrine Tolworth.  Some say the doctor is eccentric, some say he's troubled, and most say he's mad.  Avaline, however, believes there's much more to him. When the doctor is suspected of a mysterious and gruesome murder, Avaline takes it into her hands to prove her employer is not guilty.  In her search for the truth, however, will she find proof of the doctor's innocence--or proof of the madness in him that she has always denied?

One day, after fourteen years, the missing Princess of Thorns is found in the midst of a brutal war between Thorns and Pyro and a spark of hope is to be regained.

Section F: Fairy Tales & Physicists by Reffster
51 parts Complete
With a princess killer to catch, a host of fairy-tale characters to wrangle and a crumbling career to resurrect, fallen hotshot Agent Fields has his hands full. And that's before the case leads to a story-obsessed, dimension-hopping scientist, hellbent on world domination. **** Dumped, demoted and assigned to the mysterious Section F, Fields' number one priority is reversing his sudden career-slide. Even more so after meeting his new partner, the borderline dangerous Agent Peregrine. A specialist in the Agency's most unconventional cases, she suspects the victims in a recent spate of murders are fairy-tale princesses from other worlds. And her prime suspect is story-lover and quantum-science genius Dr Frank Featherstone. Suspecting his partner is crazy, Fields' scepticism begins to wilt when the case leads to a comatose prince, a wisecracking witch and a very much alive princess, with a mean kick to the codpiece up her sleeve. What begins as a murder investigation spirals into a jaw-dropping, dimension-spanning race against time, as the two agents and their new offsiders battle monsters, dodge dragons and receive a first-hand hardcore lesson in fairy-tale lore, while trying to bag the bad guy - and just maybe save the world. *Formerly a Paid Story/Wattpad Original (so you know it must be good, huh?) but now free!*
