In turn of the century New York, Jack Wolverton, gentleman thief, specialized in stealing the arcane, the accursed and the occultic. When he resorts to using one of these magical items to make an escape, he finds himself transported to modern day Manhattan -- where all the Impossible Objects he had nicked a hundred years prior are scattered once again around the globe. He not only has to retrieve them all over again, but, this time he’s stuck in a world he doesn’t understand and with a skill set that isn’t quite suitable for 2019. His only ally is his great granddaughter, who thinks he’s less a gentleman thief and more a chauvinistic creep.
