The year is 1888 and a madman is terrorizing the East End of
London. But Doctor Varanus Shashavani has far more pressing
concerns to worry about than a lunatic in Whitechapel. Her
charitable hospital is under siege by gang lords, her English
cousins are threatening to steal her inheritance, and her best
friend has become obsessed with Gothic novels. To make matters
worse, her son Friedrich is associating with an American who talks
endlessly of wellness and yoghurt, while her bodyguard is pestering
her to return home to Georgia, half a world away. It seems that
everyone--friends, enemies, and "Saucy Jack" alike--have conspired
to interrupt her work.
But Varanus did not obtain immortality just to have mad killers
and distant relations get in the way of scientific progress. Though
supernatural conspiracies and all-too-human monsters confront her
at every turn, Varanus will stand firm against all odds. After all,
she is accustomed to fighting for what is rightfully hers.
