[Conn 01] • The Marvelous Mechanical Man

The Conn-Mann Adventures Book 1 Josephine Mann is down to her last two dollars when she bumps into Professor Alistair Conn. The professor is in need of a lab assistant, and Jo desperately needs a job. Obviously, it's the Hand of Fate. Professor Conn has created a wonder--a 9-foot-tall automaton Jo dubs Phaeton. When an evil villain steals the marvelous mechanical man, Jo and Alistair track him down and get Phaeton back. Unfortunately, it's a given the evil Bessant won't give up without a fight, and Jo's longing for adventure suddenly becomes much too real...and deadly.
