Christopher Edge grew up in Manchester, UK, where he spent most of his childhood in the local library dreaming up stories, but now lives in Gloucestershire where he spends most of his time in the local library dreaming up stories. Before becoming a writer, he worked as an English teacher, editor, and publisher—any job that let him keep a book close to hand.
"Edge is back at the top of his game in this latest genre-bending
story of 15-year-old Penelope Tredwell, author and editor of the
pulpy Penny Dreadful, and the hapless actor who stands in as her
public face."--Booklist
"Fans of mystery or tales of the macabre will find much to like in
this well conceived story aimed at middle grade readers."--VOYA
"This exciting blend of mystery and alternate history is set
against the backdrop of the delayed 1901 coronation of King Edward
VII--and suggests a very different reason for the postponement than
the illness that history records. An exciting choice for mystery
fans who appreciate a touch of the fantastic."--School Library
