Ariadna Steam. Mechanical Genius of Investigation and the Curse of the Grezetsky House (set of 2 books)

In 1825, the Decembrists were defeated, and Petropolis barely recovered from the bloody war. To investigate crimes, people learned to create intelligent machines and robots. Ariadna S.T.E.A.M - an experienced prototype of a brilliant detective, but during testing, she kills several people. The only one who wanted to work with her afterward is detective Viktor Ostroumov. He sees more in Ariadna than just a ruthless machine, but where will such trust lead? After uncovering a conspiracy in Obolotsk, Ariadna's abilities gain more and more respect, and Viktor Ostroumov is nominated for an award. Meanwhile, the situation in the empire continues to escalate, threatening not only war with Decembria but also the overthrow of the Empress herself. Against this backdrop, a new case about the disappearance of one of the sons of a well-known lineage, a party animal and a dandy, seems trivial to Viktor. But soon it turns out that the gloomy estate of the Grezetskys in Iskroretsk holds many more bloody secrets. Will Ariadna be able to uncover the criminal and save Viktor from the curse of the Grezetsky family?
