Timeless hit the New York Times Mass Market Paperback bestseller list at #17 on March 18, 2012. What does the vampire Queen of the Alexandria Hive really want from her? Why is the God-Breaker Plague suddenly expanding? And how has Ivy Tunstell suddenly become the most popular actress in all the British Empire? But Egypt may hold more mysteries than even the indomitable Lady Maccon can handle. With husband, child and Tunstells in tow, Alexia boards a steamer to cross the Mediterranean. Until, that is, she receives a summons from Alexandria that cannot be ignored. Even Ivy Tunstell's acting troupe's latest play, disastrous to say the least, cannot put a damper on Alexia's enjoyment of her new London lifestyle. Of course, being Alexia, such bliss involves integrating werewolves into London High Society, living in a vampire's second best closet, and coping with a precocious toddler who is prone to turning supernatural willy-nilly. Alexia Tarabotti, Lady Maccon, has settled into domestic bliss.
