Heartless (Carriger novel)
''Heartless'' is a steampunk paranormal romance novel by Gail Carriger. Released on June 28, 2011, by Orbit Books, ''Heartless'' is the fourth book in the ''New York Times'' best-selling "The Parasol Protectorate" series, each featuring Alexia Tarabotti, a woman without a soul, as its lead character.〔
==Plot==
Blending steampunk with urban fantasy, ''Heartless'' is set in an alternate history version of Victorian England where vampires and werewolfs are welcomed as members of society, often in the upper class. The protagonist of the novel is Alexia Tarabotti, the Lady Maccon, who is "soulless", and thus unaffected by the powers of supernatural beings. The author has stated in interviews that while ''Changeless'' and ''Blameless'', the second and third books in the series, were closely linked, ''Heartless'' will be more independent, in the manner of ''Soulless'', the series' first entry.
Alexia is now eight months pregnant, but that will not stand in the way of her duties to her country and her pack. When a mad ghost threatens Queen Victoria, Alexia must determine who is trying to assassinate the monarch before it is too late. Her handsome husband is once again by her side, even as her quest delves into his murky past. To make matters worse, her sister Felicity has become a suffragette, something odd has taken up residence in Lord Akeldama's second best closet, and London is suffering a plague of zombie porcupines.
