The Vanish of Villa Loka Part Two (The Voyages of Simeon Carter and Peter Truman Book 9)
About
The mystery of the missing ten thousand is solved—but the rescue has only just begun.
Simeon Carter has survived the treacherous underground river, only to emerge in a city of gears, steam, and soaring observatories. This is the hidden world of the Sockdolager Lokians, an ingenious society of outcasts who have been watching from the shadows for over two hundred years.
To save his friends and family, Simeon must do the unthinkable: blend in. Disguised in a kingdom of high-tech marvels and “Motor Horses,” he must navigate a landscape where a single slip-up—or even the wrong eye color—could lead to his own disappearance.
As the clock ticks down and the artificial suns of the mountain begin to fail, Simeon is forced into a high-stakes game of wits with a ruler who is as unpredictable as he is powerful. When his plan for escape takes a sudden, dangerous turn.
In a city built on secrets and science, which way is out?
