Book One in The Clockwork Chronicles: A Steampunk WWII Thriller

When darkness falls, a new guardian emerges. Tricia Goyer launches The Clockwork Chronicles with a gripping steampunk adventure set in the shadows of the Nazi occupation of Prague.

Kateřina Dubová has always aspired to walk in her father's footsteps as a respected journalist — and the Second World War presents a unique opportunity to prove her worth to the world. A tip about an assassination attempt on high-ranking Nazi official Reinhard Heydrich, the "Butcher of Prague," leads her into the shadows of the Nazi occupation, where she discovers things are not as they seem.

As intrigue unfurls, Kateřina joins forces with Josef Loew, a descendant of the famous Rabbi Loew, renowned for creating a mystical guardian in the form of a golem to protect the souls of 16th-century Jews in Prague. In the chaos of war, some believe a new golem can once again bring help to those in need. Like flickering candles in the abyss, Kateřina and Josef work to protect the innocent and end the evil that plagues their world — but could the very entity they forged to protect become their greatest enemy?
