Publisher's summary

A revolutionary opportunity. A murder most foul. Can a wrongly accused young lady prove her innocence before her future goes up in smoke?

Pippa Stanhope envisions a world teeming with her mechanical creations. So after a lifetime of hiding her love for inventing steam-powered gadgets, she's thrilled when her local university finally opens its doors to women. And the determined novice fearlessly sets out to pursue a higher education despite her family’s threat to disown her.

Refusing to be intimidated by resentful male students and professors, she quickly befriends the three other ladies attending the school. But when she discovers the body of the lone teacher willing to take her under his wing, she's horrified when she’s named as the prime suspect.

Can Pippa and her new friends find the real killer before she takes the fall for a crime she didn’t commit?

A Study in Steam is the fun-filled first book in the Ladies of WACK steampunk mystery series. If you like fiery heroines, female bonding, and a splash of romance, then you’ll adore Stephanie K. Clemens' rip-roaring tale. Get A Study in Steam to get the gears of genius spinning today!

Wonderful!

This is a wonderful listen - the reader has great voices (including a stutter! The story is well passed and enough mystery, suspense, adventure & romance to satisfy all!

simple story told through great narration

the story was easy to follow, some story points were repeated to make sure the reader remembered them , which felt like trying to fill a page. overall the story provided a sense of adventure and mystery. The Narrator did an amazing job giving each individual character their own voice trait. Unlike other narrators that do opposite gender voices as cartoons, this Narrator made the transitions between male and female characters without theatrics that took you out of the story

A nice listen!

This is not my normal genre of reading but I stepped out to try something new and was not disappointed! I loved the characters and themes and am excited for the world of the ladies of WACK to continue growing. It was a nice story, easy to follow along, and the narration was wonderfully done as well; loved the different voices and accents. Very impressed by this debut novel!
