In a Futurist-Victorian London, Ex-Carnie Victor Hart makes his living as a dinner party entertainer and mountebank, using the skills taught to him by his Romani mother – the Patterns. When tragedy strikes a wealthy friend, Victor Hart puts his skills to use in an alternative manner. This Steampunk London has its fair share of psychos, sickos, and sadists, and it takes a special kind of mind to hunt them. Victor sees human behaviour in a way few others can understand but only as an outsider; certain parts of his humanity are missing and that disturbs him. As he solves each seemingly unrelated case, a dark pattern slowly begins to reveal itself threatening the heart of the British Empire and even what we feel makes us human. A Steampunk-detective-noir, darker than most, the first volume features four thrilling cases; the first novel in a Duology.

Some people might say Victorian England was not the best place to be gay. Sophia and Arthur might have to disagree. Sophia and Arthur are best friends. They are also gay. And working together in a travelling theatre about to set off on a ten month tour of England in 1867. Not much is easy for this pair. Or any of their colleagues, for that matter. There is Eleanor, a young country girl struggling with sudden changes to her morals and identity. And Harry, who ran away from home to escape the predictability of working life. Matilda, who joined the theatre to breakout from the stereotype of what is expected of a woman. George, the only parental figure in many of the actors lives, who is beginning to question everything he thought he knew. Even Mr Rob himself is a widower who has thrown himself into his passion to avoid his grief. At least they have each other, right?
