Champagne Charlie and the Amazing Gladys
by B. G. Hilton
Part 1 of the Champagne Charlie and the Amazing Gladys series
In Victoria's London, English aristocrat Edward 'Charlie' Decharles wakes up in the back of a steam-cab with a hangover, and a murdered driver. Australian music-hall performer 'The Amazing' Gladys Dunchurch finds that the stage magician she works for has vanished - and not in a good way. Realizing that neither can solve their crime alone, the pair teams up to use Charlie's considerable resources and Gladys' even more considerable brain to investigate.
As they seek answers, Charlie and Gladys discover that both of their cases are parts of a far larger crime - a conspiracy that reaches from Whitehall to the moon itself, and lies at the very heart of the Steam Age.

Everyone knows that the late Lord Grimsdale's son died years ago in a shipwreck. Now, here is a man as large as life proclaiming himself Grimsdale's true heir and thus owner of the world's largest caloric fluid refining operation. Miss Gladys Dunchurch does not wish to involve herself. She is busy worrying about this new recording machine and how that will change her beloved show business? But to help her friend Charlie Decharles, she must discover how this mysterious Claimant is connected to a mystical cult, the government's new Office of Statistical Tabulation, a madman in an asylum who claims to travel through time, an attack on the first diplomatic meeting between Earth and the Moon, and two extremely exasperated ghosts.
