1862: Albertian Britain is in the grip of conflicting forces.
Engineers transform the landscape with bigger, faster, noisier and
dirtier technological wonders; Eugenicists develop specialist
animals to provide unpaid labour; Libertines oppose restrictive and
unjust laws and flood the country with propaganda demanding a
society based on beauty and creativity; while The Rakes push the
boundaries of human behaviour to the limits with magic, sexuality,
drugs and anarchy. "Sir Richard Francis Burton and poet Algernon
Swinburne's investigation into a theft of black diamonds,
ultimately embroiling them in the affairs of a dubious claimant,
supposedly the heir of a cursed estate...is deliciously
entertaining." -- Steampunk Scholar
