The Mistress of the Mechanical Workshop

My name is Annette Ingriet, and I am a talented assistant to a genius inventor, who suddenly finds herself at the scene of a crime. The whole town is whispering, suspecting me of being the murderer. The investigator seems noble,... but he is cunning and perceptive - will he uncover not only the crime but also my secret talent? The eccentric fugitive techno-mage is both rude and talented, and he appeared just in time, offering his help. Suspiciously just in time. And both men can't stand each other. Why? Probably because of me...
They both just don't know yet who my heart truly belongs to.
