compelled to follow.
Meg
has uncovered evidence of an elite secret society and a dangerous
invention that some will stop at nothing to protect—and that Meg alone

hopes she can trust, Meg is swept into a hidden world of deception,
betrayal, and revenge. The clockwork key has unlocked her destiny in
this captivating start to a trilogy.
