When George's father died, he left his son a watchmaker's shop--and a
whole lot more.
But George has little talent for watches and other infernal devices.
When someone tries to steal an old device from the premises, George
finds himself embroiled in a mystery of time travel, wild music and
sexual intrigue.
"This is the real thing--a mad inventor, curious coins, murky London
alleys and windblown Scottish Isles...a wild and extravagant plot that
turns up new mysteries with each succeeding page." --James P. Blaylock
