Her parents called her Dorcas but he called her Campion & thats what she longed to be then & forever. She had one gift left for her by her unknown father -- a pendant made from gold banded by tiny glowing stones & at its base was a seal engraved with an axe & the words: St Matthew. So when she flees before the unbearable worthy suitor who is forced upon her after her forbidden meeting she takes this & the delicate lace gloves with her & hopes to find her father & her lover. There are four of these intricately wrought seals -- each owned by a stranger each holding a secret within. & when all four seals are united then the holder will have access to great wealth & power.

Urban conflagrations such as the Great Chicago Fire in 1871 & the Great Boston Fire of 1872 terrorized the citizens of nineteenth-century American cities although rebirth in the aftermath offered a chance to shape the future. Ultimately urban dwellers & planners created sweeping changes in the methods of constructing buildings planning city streets engineering water distribution systems underwriting fire insurance & firefighting itself.
