(3) YA Sixteen-year-old ironworker Avery Kohl is an aura healer with the ability to see and manipulate people's energy and emotions. But in the steampunk alternate-nineteenth-century NYC where she lives, people displaying such abilities--including Avery's mother--are captured and thrown into the Tombs, a fearful asylum where medical experiments are performed. Richly developed fantasy meets well-researched alt-history in Schaumberg's debut novel.
