England's ruling class are transforming Burton and Swinburne's beloved England into a nightmare where those in power—along with their merciless clockwork enforcers—oppress and enslave the masses.And now, Burton and his friends will have to find a way to heal the damage time travel has done to the world if they are ever going to save it…
