Parasol Protectorate: Book Three: Blameless

by Gail Carriger, 355 pages

Left without the protection of her pack, Alexia takes her exoneration into her own hands and travels to the continent for answers from the people responsible for her secretive late father's existence and who have striven more than anyone else to see unnaturals wiped from the face of the earth--the Knights Templar.

Italy's almost as bad as Scotland, as far as her compatriots are concerned, but Alexia has to admit she likes the food. Hee. Again with the chuckles and social commentary, but with more action this time as Alexia is quite literally on the run from murderous pursuers. Not that the people she's running to are much safer.... This volume, like its predecessor, only wraps up one or two current plot points and lets the big one cross over into the next book. I like me some continuity and series-spanning story arcs, so this is quite satisfactory.
