β¦ Synopsis
An elderly professor and his daughter advertise for an expert bookkeeper. Instead, they employ a naive young man with very little experience. But what if keeping the books is not the real reason they hired him? What if they have an ulterior motive? London, England, 1871. When I applied for a position with Professor Twickham and his daughter, I lied about my qualifications. As it turns out, they lied about the job for which I was applying. Had we not been so untruthful with each other, there might have been fewer night terrors stalking the inhabitants of the City. Fewer unexplained disappearances. Fewer deaths. Now, nobody is safe from the creeping horrors we've unleashed. With no time to spare, we face an impossible task: we must discover the mysteries in metal in order to right this wrong. But is it already too late?
