Synopsis
The place is Cairo, the time is 1912, and the case is the apparent haunting of an aerial tram car. As the city simmers beneath the summer sun and the nation readies for a vote that could grant suffrage to half the population, two men are deployed to dispatch whatever spirit, spook, or specter is interfering with the public transportation system: Agent Hamed Nasr and his new partner Agent Onsi Youssef of the Ministry of Alchemy, Enchantments and Supernatural Entities.
But nothing is quite as it seems, and soon the case forces Agents Hamed and Onsi to explore a side of Cairo stirring with suffragettes, secret societies, smuggling rings, and sentient automatons as they work to protect the city from an malevolent paranormal force.
