The year is 1855. The
Crimean War is raging. The incompetence of British commanders causes the
fall of the English government. The Empire teeters. Amid this crisis
comes opium-eater Thomas De Quincey, one of the most notorious and
brilliant personalities of Victorian England. Along with his
irrepressible daughter, Emily, and their Scotland Yard companions, Ryan
and Becker, De Quincey finds himself confronted by an adversary who
threatens the heart of the nation.
This killer targets members of the upper echelons of British society, leaving with each corpse the
name of someone who previously attempted to kill Queen Victoria. The
evidence indicates that the ultimate victim will be Victoria herself.
