The Crimson Stair — Goldeen Ogawa

Mr. Bouragner Felpz is a curious gentleman. "Magician's Consultant," according to his card, his practice takes him to places both fantastical and sinister as he untangles magical mysteries. And where he goes, his ward and reluctant biographer Miss Corianne Birch is often obliged to follow. Set in a time and place not far from late Victorian England -- but in a world where magic is very, very real -- "The Crimson Stair" is the second story in the Adventures of Bouragner Felpz.
