Description
Publisher's blurb:
The 1904 Saint Louis World’s Fair is to be a wonder of the modern age! People of all stripes are flocking to it from around the world, including the heroes. But where heroes go, villains tread as well. A sinister force is at work in the shadows, perverting the dream of the World’s Fair into a dream of world conquest, and only the heroes can stop it!
