Clockwork Lies

Ondinium stands on the brink of war... Love and duty collide when Taya is appointed attaché to Ondinium's first exalted ambassador and is soon plunged into a sinister world of secrets and lies. After the diplomatic contingent's hasty withdrawal from Mareaux to avoid an international incident, Taya's faith is shaken by a disastrous crash and a tragic murder, which reveals just how much she has to lose. Now, if she's going to fulfill her duty to her nation, she must risk everything she cares about. As the winds of war whip around Ondinium's borders, Taya's metal wings must bear her through storms, gunfire, and explosions as she fights to save them not only from their enemies, but also from their own government—a government that regards them as nothing more than clockwork cogs in a ruthless political machine.
