The Empress of the Clouds
By Desiree Ultican
In March 1896, Widow Evaline "Evvy" Amstel has been left with a tremendous debt?before he was murdered, her husband had promised to build and deliver a revolutionary airship, The Empress of the Clouds, to Erasmus Marchand, an embittered Southern millionaire who resents the fact that the damned Yankees won the Civil War. Now that Amstel is dead, no one in Joplin, Missouri, a zinc/lead mining boomtown, knows where the Empress is…or if it even exists.
