In an alternative Boston of the 1800's, our world has developed along the lines of Steampunk technology, but with a modern twist. Here exists steam-driven rudimentary computers and electronics. And dirigibles rule the sky. But with it comes huge social and political schisms which shake the very foundations of society.
