The Osiris Curse (A Tweed and Nightingale Adventure #2) by Paul Crilley

This second tale in the Tweed and Nightingale Adventures  does not disappoint.  Sebastien is questioning his identity after a startling revelation in the climax of the previous book (The Lazarus Machine), and Octavia is annoyed to find herself regarding her counterpart in a disturbing new light.  Sherlock Holmes, Jules Verne and H.G. Wells are all drawn into Crilley’s fantastic steampunk London along with a world of incredible inventions, bloody skirmishes and some surprisingly thoughtful questions about the value of human life which most teenagers, thankfully, do not personally have to face.
