Ringo Devereux is aware of much too much for a man of his times. There is no simple explanation for this that doesn't require improbable discussions about the near future, and Ringo's advanced knowledge of three-phase generators and the trick histories of his city aren't things he can consult with the Victorian Londoners around him. Even his origins as an orphaned block thief are much too dangerous for a gentleman of means to reveal. An encounter with a 10-year-old pickpocket, and a luncheon with Oscar Wilde and Arthur Conan Doyle pull Ringo back into the shadows of his criminal past. A taken gemstone, a dubious pawnbroker, and a damning package of characters are mysteries that want Ringo's thief's instincts, his obscure facts, and the help of just a little girl with the skills of deduction like his. But are these offences as arbitrary as they first show up? What execute a covert affair and a blue carbuncle have in common? Ringo is aware of too much, but someone is aware of more, and the identity of a incomprehensible red-haired woman is perhaps the most diabolically complicated plot of these all.
