Through The Baltic Looking-Glass 1 — Lara Biyuts

Steampunk. Edwardian mystery. Set in Europe in 1912, the novel “Through the Baltic Looking-Glass” is written in the form of travel notes by Oscar Maria Graf, observant globe-trotter, younger contemporary of Oscar Wilde. A Stenbock-like figure, by his origin and his dabbling in literature, Oscar Graf is much hotter, more active and pragmatic than Eric Stenbock (1860-1895) whom he was friend with, when he lived in London. The book was previously self-published in a series of nice books. PART 1 “In the Island. Adventures”: The series of his adventures on a fictional island on the Mediterranean Sea seem to come to an end, when he receives a message from his homeland in the fictional Baltic country of Nyomanland. In the message, his cousin asks him to come home, because the cousin's mother disappeared and something's wrong at the household. Later, on his way, Oscar hears about one mysterious outlander of the name of Kornelis Aboleo Lord Ravensable von Holstein who travels along with his cousin Adrian Magnhus Lord Wolfhampton von Holstein and who appeared earlier in the winter tale of the novel "Silver Thread Spinner" and then in the novella "A Handful of Blossoms" by Lara Biyuts.
