    Summary

    TW: Implied rape of original underage character in Chapter 13.

    A derivative/continuation of the tv series created by Rachael New...think Sherlock Holmes meets Veronica Mars. The series is set in Victorian London and follows plucky Eliza Scarlet, who takes over her late father's private detective agency. Facing resistance from the male-dominated world of detective work, she teams up with a detective inspector known as "The Duke" to solve various cases.

    William and Eliza have become engaged, and a certain person from William's past along with a new missing persons case upend his very understanding of his origins, forcing him to come to terms with his past. After yet another work-related injury for William, Eliza gains perspective on life, love, and her ambitions. Together, they lean on each other (and Ivy) to face their fears and allow their relationship to strengthen and blossom.
