As Tessa moved toward the carriage, propelled by Mrs. Dark’s bony
grip, the mist cleared, revealing the gleaming golden image painted on the side of the
door. The words “The Pandemonium Club” curled intricately around two snakes
biting each other’s tails, forming a circle. Tessa frowned. “What does that
mean?”

“Nothing you need worry about,” said Mrs. Black, who had
already climbed inside and had her skirts spread out across one of the
comfortable-looking seats. The inside of the carriage was richly decorated with plush
purple velvet bench seats facing each other, and gold tasseled curtains hanging in the
windows.

Mrs. Dark helped Tessa up into the carriage, then clambered in behind her.
As Tessa settled herself on the bench seat, Mrs. Black reached to shut the carriage door
behind her sister, closing out the gray sky. Her teeth gleamed in the dimness as if they
were made out of metal. “Do settle in, Theresa. We’ve a long ride ahead of
us.”

Tessa put a hand to the clockwork angel at her throat, taking comfort in
its steady ticking as the carriage lurched forward into the rain.
